verse 1 waitin’ on a mid-town train that couldn’t come too soon like a monday morning on a sunday afternoon tried to catch you but I guess you couldn’t wait once again too little too late yea, when nothing lasts for ever here, there, now or never hard to tell when all the stars align yea, well it’s two steps behind you or just close enough to blind you someday my love will find you right on time verse 2 southbound birds are flying casting shadows in the sun somehow they see the ending long before it’s begun me I’ll ride the storm out in my old familiar way you knew better than to stay yea, when nothing lasts for ever here, there, now or never hard to tell when all the stars align yea, well it’s two steps behind you or just close enough to blind you someday my love will find you right on time ohhhhh ohhhhhh
