What You Want
A waltz-time anthem in F major that earns its optimism the old-fashioned way: a verse that actually sets something up before the chorus pays it off. The full-band kick at 0:48 lands with the kind of lift you get from early Tom Petty, and lines like ‘the seeds you plant will one day grow’ stay on the honest side of inspirational without tipping into greeting card. At 2:39 it knows exactly when to leave.
Lyrics
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah What you want will come your way
Sometimes the road feels long and rough And every step just ain’t enough But the sun still shines behind the rain Every storm will fade, the joy remains Lift your head, don’t lose your sight What you want is within your light
What you want, it’ll come in time Like the river flows, like the stars align Don’t you worry, it will be ok What you want will come your way
The world will spin, no matter how Keep your faith, just be here now The seeds you plant will one day grow The love you give will always show One step forward, you’re on your way What you want is here to stay
What you want, it’ll come in time Like the river flows, like the stars align Don’t you worry, it will be ok What you want will come your way
(Hummed melody, softly sung) Oh, oh, don’t fear the night The dawn is near, the world’s alright Trust the rhythm, trust the flow What you want, let the feeling grow
What you want, it’ll come in time Like the river flows, like the stars align Don’t you worry, it will be ok What you want will come your way
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah What you want will come your way
