[Verse 1]
Please don't wait for me
I lost my way again
I lost my job, I walked away
From the life that I was leading with my friends
When I was young I dreamed
Of a life that had freedom that had joy
Oh life it crushed my soul
With its cruel demands and fool's gold

[Refrain] (2x)
Ohhhh

[Verse 2]
Please don't wait for me
I lost my way again
I lost my house and my good name
When I found the road of my king
When I was young I dreamed
Of a life that had beauty that had joy
But now I lost my life
For the one I dreamt of as a boy

[Refrain] (2x)
Ohhhh
[Verse 3]
Please don't wait for me
I ain't coming back again
I cannot turn around
From the place I'm going to where I've been
