I Wasn't Late For You
All my life I’ve been chasing my tailAll the time missing deadlines without fail
And there might be fishes in the sea
But everyone was hooked
It seemed too late for me
Every chance I’d blown
I wish I had have known
I wasn’t late for you
Tired of love, tired of losing, and resigned
To a life with nobody alongside
And you came with all your magic power
Made everything sublime
The clock went back an hour
The time that went before
I’m happy to ignore
I wasn’t late for you
Oh my love I’ve been chasing my dream
And that’s not been as glamorous as it seems
And your nights must have been like watching drying paint
It would have fully tried the patience of a saint
You could have turned the page
But you never left the stage
I wasn’t late for you.
All my life I’ve been chasing my tail
Going round with the progress of a snail
But I won’t dwell upon the list
Of things that I’ve not done
Of everything I missed
They’ll just stay in the queue
Of things still left to do
I wasn’t late for you
I’ll be late for my demise
But much to my surprise
I wasn’t late for you.
