They Found Tom - I Can't Wait Lyrics

There's something you should know
Before you have to go
That it's been very nice to know you
But would you stay with me
If I asked you pretty please
I just don't trust myself alone here tonight

'Cause I can't wait
And I can't wake
I can't play the child like I used to
No I can't wait
And I can't pray
I can't fake the smile like I used to

I have that dream I have it every night
The one I told you 'bout when we were five
Before the world was on my shoulders
I woke up sweating from my state of zen
I know I'll never have that dream again
One sleepless night I woke up ten years older

So I can't wait
And I can't wake
I can't play the child like I used to
No I can't wait
And I can't pray
I can't fake the smile like I used to

I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting

I can't wait
And I can't pray
I can't fake the smile like I used to
No I can't wait
