It Can’t Come Quickly Enough
[Verse 1]
Sailling through the tunnels in the morning by yourself
There's a very special feeling, true sensation, all is well
If you stand and reach your arms out wide, close your eyes and try to fly
It's an underground illusion tricking you from side to side
We knew all the answers and we shouted them like anthems
Anxious and suspicious that God knew how much we cheated

[Chorus]
It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and left you so defeated

[Verse 2]
Skyscrapers rise between us, keeping me from finding you
If the concrete architecture disappeared there'd be so few
Of us left to navigate and defend ourselves from the tide
It's an underground illusion tricking you from side to side
There's no indication of what we were meant to be
Sucking up to strangers, throwing wishes to the sea

[Chorus]
It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and left you so defeated
It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and left you so defeated
[Chorus]
It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and left you so defeated
It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and left you so defeated
