[Verse 1] I think I’m an emotional sellout Smiling at you ‘cause you said that it’s what you deserve I guess I get your love in return [Refrain] It won’t be long 'til the getting better [Verse 2] 5 pm is dark in November Seventeen’s gone, and I can’t kick this cold But the mornings are lighter And I bought a lottery ticket [Refrain] It won’t be long ‘til the getting better [Chorus] Ooh, I’m waiting, it won’t begin Ooh, oh, let me in Let me in [Verse 2] I used to think that love was a fire Stayed underwater so i couldn’t get burned But I forgot how to swim And then the ship started sinking [Refrain] It won’t be long ‘til the getting better It won’t be long [Chorus] Ooh, I see it, it’s closing in Oh, let me in, no Let me in Let me in Let me in [Verse 3] A couple more miles to your doorstep Could be pushing my luck again Hoping you’re home But your room’s got a light on And I bought a lottery ticket [Refrain] It won’t be long ‘til I’m gonna win it It won’t be long, woah
