[Verse 1]
Moods don't command you
If you don't know what you're going through
There's love for you
Up where the population grows

[Verse 2]
There's friendly people in cities too
Just ask them where they are going to
There's life and work
Up where the clouds meet the snow

[Hook]
And I don't mind waiting

[Verse 3]
I'm always one step ahead of you
If you don't know what you're going through
There's laughs and fun
Up where the conversation flows

[Chorus 1]
And I don't mind waiting
If it takes a long, long time
And I don't mind braving
The coldest winter of our time
And I don't mind racing through our goodbyes
[Bridge]
This is your last line of defense
You could sell your baseball cards
Just to pay your rent, yeah

[Chorus 2]
I don't mind waiting
If it takes a long, long time
And I don't mind wasting
The best years of our lives
And I don't mind racing through our goodbyes
