Something is off do you feel it today
Even the clocks strike a minute too late
But i try
To make it on time

I miss the bus so i'm walking to school
I miss the chance to catch up too
I missed you

I came to visit but you'd just gone away
I bought a rose but you had a bouquet
I still try
To make it on time

Like the constellations up in the sky
They'll never see the morning light
Like you and i

I sit and wait here
Playing house in my mind
You're running late dear
Or am i off on the time

Chorus

What could have been
Makes me stay
It's so fucked up
I'm just a minute too late

But i'll keep making the bed for two
I'll keep making the bed for you

There is a local garden on crescent heights
You would have loved it if you'd been by my side
I still try
To make it on time

I heard a waltz it remind me of you
When we were dancing in that half lit room

I sit and wait here
Playing house in my mind
You're running late dear
Or am i off on the time

What could have been
Makes me stay
It's so fucked up
I'm just a minute too late

But i'll keep making the bed for two
I'll keep making the bed for you
