I’ll be so glad when,

They’re finally outta diapers

I’ll could use a little quiet-er

around here

I’ll be so glad when

All the bills are paid on time

Date night don’t feel like a crime

For the time we steal

But there’s always something

Always one thing or another

Being a wife, a friend, a mother

And it always feels uphill

But,

The journey is the dream

Tucked inside the storyline of every memory

Are all the reasons I should slow down

long enough to see

That the journey

The journey is the dream

I’ll be so glad when

They’re out of junior high

And one of ‘em can drive

The all round this town

I’ll be so glad when

We build that big ‘ole house

That we’ve always talked about

And finally settle down

But,

The journey is the dream

Tucked inside the storyline of every memory

Are the reasons I should slow down

long enough to see

That the journey

The journey is the dream

Ain’t no tellin’ what I’ve missed livin for when

But I ain’t never gettin right now back again

 

‘Cause

The journey is the dream

The journey is the dream

Tucked inside the storyline of all the memories

Are the reasons I should probably slow down

long enough to see

That the journey

The journey

The journey is

The journey

The journey is

The journey is the dream

I’ll be so glad when…
