It Can Wait Lyrics by Illy

The Chase

2010

[Verse 1: Illy]
Yeah
It's like that money in my
Palm, soon as I spend it, want it
Soon as it's on, I'm off it
Soon as I get it, lost it
It's like the moment compared
To staring at pictures of it
It pick you up then drop you down
You blink, you missed it
Wish you watched it
So amazing when it's there
When it ain't it's so unfair
Go from square one to atmosphere
Then back to here, and
I thought I had it on lock
Turns out you can't restrict it
Can't rush it, can't predict it
That's part and parcel with
[Chorus: Illy & Owl Eyes]
Happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine
For the moment, it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my
Happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine
For the moment, it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
[Verse 2: Illy]
We take that weekend by storm
Tick tour dates off tour posters
Start that long sleep to sober
Then just like that, it's over
We party like rock stars
Looking down on how kings would live
And wake up to setting suns
Smoke stains on our fingertips, but
It's perfect in that moment
We own it, it's ours
No happy ever afters
Just happy for right nows
So fleeting, so profound
Thoughts full in my head
It's nights I won't remember with mates
I'll never forget, that's my
[Chorus: Illy & Owl Eyes]
Happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine
For the moment, it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my
Happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine
For the moment, it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
[Bridge: Illy, Owl Eyes, Illy & Owl Eyes]
Full tilt, we hit them highs
Man, they come and go like seasons
I know when it's arrived
Hardly catch it till it's leaving
Hold tight for them up and downs
Hold tight for them up and downs
Hold tight for them up and downs
Hold tight for them up and downs
Hold tight, hold on
And don't slow down, no, no
That's my up and down
That's my up and down
That's my up and down
That's my up and down
[Verse 3: Illy]
Yeah, ain't no amount of words close to define that feeling
Reality and dreaming
Tow that fine line between 'em
Soon as it got here, it's leaving
Dunno when it's comin' round again, but
Move forward, push towards it
Means justify the end, so
We're scouring far and wide
Through love and fear and hurting
But after all that searching
Goddamn it, it's worth it
Bang the head of the nail
We don't dream to scale
Long as there's wind in my sails
I'ma stay hot on the trail, my
[Chorus: Illy & Owl Eyes]
Happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine
For the moment, it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my
Happiness
Happiness is fine but it's momentary
A momentary lapse of reality
Reality is fine
For the moment, it can wait
I'm addicted to the chase of my happiness
