If You Can Wait

If you can wait

The rain will stop

A hit song will drop

The pot will have boiled

A crime will be foiled

If you can wait

But a moment

To make a comment

For a little while

Then let loose that smile,

If you can wait

For an angel to deploy

For that coveted toy

For your soul to settle

And find its righteous mettle

If you can wait

For a lover to call

For your child to grow tall

For bonus points to accrue

The sky will turn blue.

If you can wait

To talk it over with a friend

For the weird fad to end

For a better day

And a kinder phrase to say

If you can wait

For God to call your name

For your turn to get into the game

The job will be well done

The conquest will be won.

If you can wait

For reason to restrain

For hope to constrain

For the flower to bloom

And your stomach to have room

If you can wait

The right person will show

Your joy will grow

The fever will break

The right choice you will make.
