Those Who Wait lyrics

When I was a boy

I was always caught in the middle.

I was never a winner,

Just a loner in the crowd,

Looking for a way out.

Then I grew a little older,

And a little bolder.

I grew impatient.

The future I was chasing

Never seemed to be within my reach

Til I heard somebody say:

(Slow, slow down…)

Nothing’s gonna happen before it’s time

(Slow, slow down…)

Let the pieces fall into place and you’ll be fine

[Chorus:]

Take your time

So I’m waiting,

'Cause I know I’m gonna be

Next in line

To claim my prize, and be all that I wanna be

I work so hard to earn my place

And good things come to those who wait

So made it out, eventually

I took the leap

And I landed on my feet

Yeah I found my team, my family

And as I chase this dream

I know that they believe in me

And we’re onto something good (I know)

We’re 'bout to conquer this world

I’m so glad that I

Took my own time

I’m glad I did it the right way

(Slow, slow down…)

Now I listen to my instincts when I lose my way

(Slow, slow down…)

And that’s when they say

[Chorus:]

Take your time

So I’m waiting,

'Cause I know I’m gonna be

Next in line

To claim my prize, and be all that I wanna be

I work so hard to earn my place

And good things come to those who wait

Now I know if I died tomorrow

I wouldn’t regret a single thing

I wanna look back on where I’ve been

And know that I made my own way

That I lived each day, and owned it

Working for that good thing, that good thing

[Chorus:]

Take your time

So I’m waiting,

Cause I know I’m gonna be

Next in line

To claim my prize, and be all that I wanna be

I work so hard to earn my place

And good things come to those who wait

Good things, those who wait

I appreciate those who wait

Thank you to those who wait

Good things come
