I Can Wait in Hairspray

On my own,
There's no chaperone
But my heart still is mine
For the keeping
Tracy, take a rest
You can pass this test
You can still dream your dream while you're sleeping

[CHORUS 1]
If I can just stay true to the steps I've taken
It will all come through,
If it's fate, let it be
Cause now I see, I Can Wait

Change takes time
It's a long, hard climb
But I'll get to the top if I'm steady

And where love's concerned,
well, I guess I've learned
Just to trust he'll be here
When he's ready

[CHORUS 2]
If I can just stay true
to the steps I've taken
It will all come through
I'll let fate, set the date
It's okay I Can Wait

Plant the tiniest seed down below
Tend it well,
Then stand back and just watch it grow
Watch me grow

[CHORUS 3]
If I can just stay true
to the steps I have taken
It will all come through
Name the date and say when
But 'till then, I Can Wait
