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
