late bloomer - ron sexsmith lyrics
it’s just a stone’s throw
from here to eternity
from the back roads
to where i long to be
the world has changed
leaving only the truth intact
you think it’s a game
to me it means more than that
but i’m a late bloomer
i’m a slow learner
and i’ve turned the record over
i’m a long player
my song is my saviour
i’ve got to raise it up
as far as my spirit can reach
that everyone might see
within earshot
of rose-coloured dreamers at best
i don’t mean to eavesdrop
it’s just part of my job i guess
at one glance
they don’t know the truth by half
how announcing your plans
is a sure way to hear god laugh
like a crab apple on the tree
they’ll find life more bitter than sweet
but i’m a late bloomer
i’m a slow learner
and i’ve heard the penny drop
i’m a small player
with a tall order
to come out on top
and without selling my soul
that everyone might know
that i’m a late bloomer
from a turntable to a phone
from a revolution to a ring tone
i’m a late bloomer
i’m a slow learner
and i’ve turned the record over
i’m a long player
my song is my saviour
got to raise it up
i’m a late bloomer
i’m a slow learner
and i’ve heard the penny drop
i’m a small player
with a tall order
to come out on top
and without selling my soul
that’s how a flower grows
and i’m a late bloomer
i’m a late bloomer
i’m a late bloomer
