Late for Your Life (Alternate Mix)

You've been sayin' for the longest time

That the time has come

You've been talking like you're of a mind

To get some changing done

Maybe move out of the city

Find some quiet little town

Where you can sit out on your back porch step

And watch the sun go down

Well, no one knows where they belong

The search just goes on and on and on

For every choice that ends up wrong

Another one's right

A change of scene would sure be great

The thought is nice to contemplate

But the question begs why would you wait

And be late for your life?

Now you might never find that perfect town

But the sun still sets

On a rooftop where the city sounds like a Gershwin clarinet

And you might still be searching every face

For one you can't forget

Love is out there in a stranger's clothes

You just haven't met him yet

No one knows where they belong

The search just goes on and on and on

For every day that ends up wrong

Another one's right

Call it chance or call it fate

Either one is cause to celebrate

Still the question begs why would you wait

And be late for your life?

Call it chance, baby, call it fate

Either one is cause to celebrate

And the question now is why would you wait?

Don't be late for your life
