I can't explain the feeling, but you know it
Why we wait so many years to feel the same
If I was wise, then I would try to ignore it
I would stay here, it's familiar and it's safe

Shake the tree and watch the apples rolling
I tried my hardest to catch them in my shirt
We will never stop the next new ones from growing
Next spring, we'll pick up all the ones we hurt

I just can't wait anymore
I just can't wait anymore

I'm sorry if I broke to you my promise
And I'm sorry if I went back on my words
Now you're looking over at me in the most peculiar way
I could tell you my whole story, I just don't know what to say

But I just can't wait anymore (you know I can't)
I just can't wait anymore
I just can't wait anymore

In the middle of the night, the places we'll say we'll be
We watched everybody leave, we held on desperately
Oh, what a day, oh, what a day to leave
We danced on the wire, waited patiently

I danced on the wire
I danced on the wire
