歌詞
O! The words come out so hard, it's like they're concrete in my mouth
I've never known for certain, but now I'm sure that there's no doubt
When the days pile out on end, and you say goodnight to friends
And when the evening's over and there's no one hanging out
I hear those birds of guilt bring the morning
Singing their song of shame
I can hear them in the dawn light warning
How they already know my name
I've been late blooming forever
But I think it's gonna happen any day
You might see me on the street and keep walking
When I'm wearing a brand new face
O! Dear friends and gentle hearts that I've known along the way
I've been late blooming but I think it's gonna happen any day
When I get back on Sunday
I'm gonna make it all up to you
And if my room's still ready I'm gonna shake the dust from my shoes
I've been a stranger on the highway
I've been a stranger on the floor
I've been a stranger in the heart of my lover
Knocking on my own front door
Somebody tell that guy to get out of my mirror
Living in the corners of my eyes
Because every time I turn around to meet him
He's gone just like a thief in the night
I've been late blooming forever
But I think it's gonna happen this time
You might hear me in the midnight
Calling now and then when I cross your mind
O! The days that I have tarried have all carried me down the line
I've been late blooming but I think it's gonna happen this time
I've been late blooming forever
But I think it's gonna happen any day
You might see me on the street and keep walking
When I'm wearing a brand new face
O! Dear friends and gentle hearts that I've known along the way
I've been late blooming but I think it's gonna happen any day
I've been late blooming but I think it's gonna happen today
