I chased fame til I’d had enough, never got to fill my cup
I had a lot of fun along the way
Don’t think about what might have been, races I will never win
Glad to taste the sweetness of the day
We feel like kings, we feel like slaves
The love we hold can drift away
In the good times we’re flying like we’re ten feet tall
In the end, it’s all about how we fall
I used to be a ladies’ man, master of the one night stand
Now I’m looking for a love that lasts
Don’t fret about the bridges burned, chalk it up to lessons learned
There ain’t no future living in the past (chorus)
I tripped and went down, sprang up from the ground
Brushed all the dust from my jeans
I’ll take it as it comes, I walk, no need to run
Stopped trying to figure out what this all means
Now I wake up to the morning light, happy to escape the night
The birds are singing three-part harmony
I choose to smile and appreciate, good things come to those who wait
I’ve waited long, I’ve waited patiently
