I can't run, can't turn away now
It's all the same, nothing ever changes
The long days, the ten cent raises
A few bucks in my pocket's gotta go a long way
22, got my whole life ahead of me
But still, lettin' life get the best of me
Gotta stop, and just leave it up to destiny now
I don't know how much more of this I can handle
But I know that good things come to those who wait
I can't run, can't turn away now
Four years, I've been out of high school
Forget college, thinking I was so cool
But no regrets, gotta do what you gotta do
My heart, it's in love with the rock 'n' roll
And playing music is all that I really know
You know love, it's the only thing you can't control
Can't stop believing no matter how long it takes
It might kill me to keep on dreaming
But I'd rather die than throw it away
I don't know how much more of this I can handle
But I know that good things come to those who wait
And better things will come to those who don't give up
So mine should be coming any day
I can't run, can't turn away now
