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
