Letters from New York - I Can

I love you he whispered in her ear
He planned this moment for what felt just like a year
They laid together underneath the moonlight
And for one moment all their problems were out of sight
She said I can't wait for what's next
He looked at her and then he said
Time goes on but you still stay the same
And my love for you will never change
The clock moves way too fast
And I want these memories to last
Days go by and you're still here with me
Making each and every memory
There is no guarantee
That tomorrow we will see
So when you say that you can't wait, well I can
Twelve years now since that very first night
Three kids at home and all they know is how to fight
The house a mess and toys are scattered on the lawn
There's so much stress that all their hair is almost gone
She just can't seem to take much more
But soon they'll walk right out the door
Time goes on but you still stay the same
And my love for you will never change
The clock moves way too fast
And I want these memories to last
Days go by and you're still here with me
Making each and every memory
There is no guarantee
That tomorrow we will see
So when you say that you can't wait, well I can
Careful what you wish for or you're gonna end up
Wishing your life away
And at the end of the road you're gonna end up
Wishing your life had changed
She said I can't wait and he told her that you'll end up
Wishing your life away
Better be careful I don't wanna miss us
Time goes on and but you still stay the same
And my love for you will never change
The clock moves way too fast
And I want these memories to last
Days go by and you're still here with me
Making each and every memory
There is no guarantee
That tomorrow we will see
So when you say that you can't wait, well I can
