lyrics

i don't want to wait for sunshine
i don't want to wait for snow
i just want a simple answer
but some things i'll never know

i could wear a nicotine patch
i could smoke a cigarette
is this real or just a good time?
no one knows, so place your bets

we are here and this is right now
we are here and younger still
let's be fools for slightly longer
come our day we'll get the bill

promise me you'll wear a seatbelt
love the people you have met
it's the life you've always wanted
promise me you won't forget
