Of course. What's the address? Most likely your fee was too low. Next time consult this site before sending a transaction. It updates in real time and shows you how much you should pay to get a fast confirmation.

Reiterating what DarkAngel said. BTC's blockspace works on supply and demand. The fees recoup the mining costs of the miner and higher fees are usually sought after. If your fee is too small, no one will want to process your transaction, because they're essentialy losing money.
