Good things come to those who wait


One day I'll wake up 

and my dreams will be true

and I'll know it's because

all the hardwork I do

One day I'll wake up

and I'll finally see

this amazing life

that fate has handed me

One day I'll wake up

and I'll never go back

to the premature me

that I used to attack

One day I'll wake up 

and only live in the present

I'll forget all the memories

that I still seem to resent

One day I'll wake up 

and I'll have only one regret 

that I've never truly appreciated

the ones that I've met

One day I'll wake up

and do nothing but smile

because the time I have

many only last a while
