Waiting all your life
And you can't see,
That your next adventure
Is waiting beyond the trees.Waiting for change to happen
And you don't understand,
That the next opportunity
Is waiting right in front of you.Waiting for a miracle
And you realize,
That the next thing to happen
Is what you are looking for.Waiting for someone to help
And you tend to forget,
That the next time you ask for it
Is also when you can give it.Waiting for more to come
And you can't know,
That what you expect
Is not always what you get.Waiting for the world to comply
And you can't always rely,
That the things we want,
Are almost never the things that we get.
