Song language: English
Late Bloomer |
| It’s just a stone’s throw from here to eternity |
| From the back road to where I long to be |
| The world has changed leaving only the truth intact |
| You think it’s a game to me, it means more than that |
| But I’m a late bloomer, I’m a slow learner |
| And I’ve turned the record over |
| I’m a long player, my song is my savior |
| I’ve got to raise it up as far as my spirit can reach |
| That everyone might see |
| Within earshot of rose colored dreamers at best |
| I don’t mean to eavesdrop, it’s just part of my job I guess |
| At one glance they don’t know the truth by half |
| How announcing your plans is a sure way to hear God laugh |
| Like a crab apple on the tree |
| They’ll find life more bitter than sweet |
| I’m a late bloomer, I’m a slow learner |
| And I’ve heard the penny drop |
| I’m a small player with a tall order to come out on top |
| And without selling my soul |
| That everyone might know that I’m a late bloomer |
| From a turntable to a phone |
| From a revolution to a ring tone |
| I’m a late bloomer, I’m a slow learner |
| And I’ve turned the record over |
| I’m a long player, my song is my savior |
| Got to raise it up |
| I’m a late bloomer, I’m a slow learner |
| And I’ve heard the penny drop |
| I’m a small player with a tall order to come out on top |
| And without selling my soul, that’s how a flower grows |
| And I’m a late bloomer |
