Perfectly Of Late (lyrics)

Perfectly Of Late (lyrics)

A Poem by Angela Flynn
"

Lyrics for a song I'm working on. This is a work in progress, so it will likely be different when it's finished, but here's a start (v, c, v, c, b, v, c)

"
Whipping boy so full of hope
Seems real sad to throw it back at him
Already lost when I started to choke
I never thought it'd be this easy (so easy)

Yes sir don't be late
I refuse to wait
By the garden gate
Perfectly of late
Yes sir don't be late
I'm a fool to wait
By the garden gate
Perfectly of late

Constant change embraces loss
Seems real fast although it drags real slow
Already near when I started to float
No one said it'd be this easy (so easy)

Watch me hesitate
As you contemplate
Maybe trying to fake
The purity we make
Yes sir don't you go
I refuse to know
By the garden gate
I will sit and wait

Hear me all I want is you
See there's nothing more to do
Some seething, scheming silhouette
Takes the chance, places a bet

Little more than a little more
How many times have I heard it before
Makes me want to curl up inside
No one said it'd be easy (s'not easy)

Yes sir don't be late
I refuse to wait
By the garden gate
Perfectly of late
Yes sir don't be late
I'm a fool to wait
By the garden gate
Perfectly
