Late Bloomer

I spent my last paycheck
On someone else's wedding
I'm up again for bridesmaid of the year

But I ain't found the one yet
Truth is I can't get
A decent guy to buy me a beer

It sure seems like lately
Everybody's making babies
While I'm just trying to make it through the day

They're all painting family portraits
Doing what's important
Maybe I had better pick up my pace

But, some things take a little longer to grow
Fashionably late gets me where I need to go
I got no plans to get there any sooner
Taking my time
I'm a late bloomer

Modern expectations
Say that I should be the greatest
Gold records hanging up on every wall
But I'm still playing dive bars and I
Still drive my old car
Still logging part-time hours at the mall

Cause some things take a little longer to grow
Fashionably late gets me where I need to go
I got no plans to get there any sooner
Taking my time
I'm a late bloomer

Maybe someday
I'll be able to say
I'm no longer running behind
There's only one way to go
So no matter how slow
I'll make it there in good time

Cause some things take a little longer to grow
Fashionably late gets me where I need to go
Some things take a little longer to grow
Fashionably late gets me where I need to go
I've got no plans to get there any sooner
Taking my time
I'm taking my time
I'm a late bloomer
