I was just a bedroom dreamer
Wishing on the glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling, mm
Singing for my third grade teacher
Looked me in the eyes, and told me she had a feeling
And I had a feeling
So I spent the next ten years
Waiting for my moment
And if that little girl could see me now
She wouldn't believe how it's going
When I can't think straight
Too much on my plate
I gotta tell myself
That I used to pray for these days
I got a job and some bills to pay
Got a boy who loves to say my name
Gotta go 'cause I'm running late
I used to pray for these days
Lately I've been out of town
Can't even sleep, can't even meet my friend for coffee, mm
Catch myself looking around
Feeling behind, so out of time, ain't it funny?
But it's not lost on me
That I've spent the next ten years
Waiting for my moment
And if that little girl could see me now
She wouldn't believe how it's going
When I can't think straight
Too much on my plate
I gotta tell myself
That I used to pray for these days
I got a job and some bills to pay
Got a boy who loves to say my name
Gotta go 'cause I'm running late
I used to pray for these days
Used to pray for these days
Used to pray, I used to pray for these days
I got a job and some bills to pay
Got a boy who loves to say my name
Singing songs, standing on a stage
I used to pray for these days
