I used to say someday I'll be an astronaut
And go far away
When I get old enough to not be scared at all
Or maybe a fireman, in a bright, red truck
Running to the flames
'Cause then I'll be strong enough and never feel so small
Wasted time, waiting for my world to change around me
But maybe the world is waiting, it's waiting on me
'Til I see the light of the morning
Light of the morning
I'll fight 'til I know you believe
I'm telling you I'm never running
I'm never running
I'm right where I wanted to be
I used to believe in some kind of destiny
That would carry me
To all of the places I imagined I would go
But here in the same old town, think I'm finally seeing with clarity
That running away, it ain't no way to build a home, oh
Wasted time, waiting for my world to change around me
But maybe the world is waiting, it's waiting on me
'Til I see the light of the morning
Light of the morning
I'll fight 'til I know you believe
I'm telling you I'm never running
I'm never running
I'm right where I wanted to be
