Lyrics! Song #1: Bad Timing
Over the course of this month, I am going to share the stories and lyrics from each of the 10 tracks for this album. I will simply start in alphabetical order. Towards the end of the campaign, I will re-cap the entire project, and tell you how the "Theology of the Body" inspired each song.
Here is Song #1!
----------------------------------------------------
"Bad Timing," by Amanda Vernon ©2012
1. You don’t know
How many years
I prayed I would
Hear you say you cared
Now you’re bold
Now you’re here
Well, I moved on
I dried my tears
(Chorus)
Next time show up sooner
Now there will be no next time for us
Next time speak up quicker
Now we will never be
Talk about
Bad,
Bad,
Bad timing
2. You don’t know
How many days
I held back
I gave you space
And now you say
You felt the same?
Well, I moved on
When you went away
(Bridge)
This is the bridge
Where I’d like to fix this
Tie a bow
Say everything is
Beautiful
But you make me feel
Out of sync
I don’t think
I get your timing
Time brings change
And you are late
