I can't explain the feeling, but you know it Why we wait so many years to feel the same If I was wise, then I would try to ignore it I would stay here, it's familiar and it's safe Shake the tree and watch the apples rolling I tried my hardest to catch them in my shirt We will never stop the next new ones from growing Next spring, we'll pick up all the ones we hurt I just can't wait anymore I just can't wait anymore I'm sorry if I broke to you my promise And I'm sorry if I went back on my words Now you're looking over at me in the most peculiar way I could tell you my whole story, I just don't know what to say But I just can't wait anymore (you know I can't) I just can't wait anymore I just can't wait anymore In the middle of the night, the places we'll say we'll be We watched everybody leave, we held on desperately Oh, what a day, oh, what a day to leave We danced on the wire, waited patiently I danced on the wire I danced on the wire
