Everything comes to an end
Few have time to wait
Well my patience, Lord, is wearin' thin
The hour's gettin' late
The ladies come and go
Barely turn my head
But you make me feel
Like a change is coming
I've been wastin' time
I'm ready for you
I'm leavin' my past behind
I'm ready for you
Can't let it get away
It's gettin' closer
Can't let it get away
I'm feelin' better
Can't let it get away, oh no
Can't let it get away, can't let it get away
Oh it was worth the wait
But I won't wait no more
I never believed in fate now, baby
I've been wrong before
This time I'm really givin' it all
And I ain't got time to wait
You make me feel
Like a change is comin'
I've been wastin' time
I'm ready for you
I'm leavin' my past behind
I'm ready for you
Can't let it get away
It's gettin' closer
Can't let it get away
I'm feelin' better
Can't let it get away, oh no
Can't let it get away, can't let it get away
