Bad Timing

Hey it's me what a big surprise Calling you up from a restaurant Around the bend

I just got in from way up North I'm aching tired now And I could use a friend

I might be a fool To think that you do Want to see me again

It's been awhile since I talked to you Nothing wrong Just nothing ever goes as planned

Many times I thought I'd call I didn't have your number in my hand I know it's true

You'd never do The same thing to me I never meant to make you cry

And though I know I shouldn't call It just reminds us of the cost Of everything we've lost

Bad timing that's all Maybe soon there'll come a day

When no more tears will fall If we each forgive a little bit

And we both look back on it As just bad timing that's all

We used to have so many plans Something always seemed to turn out wrong

I never could catch up to you Moving on and doing what you've done

I don't know why The harder I try The harder it comes

I never meant to make you cry And though I know I shouldn't call

It just reminds us of the cost Of everything we've lost Bad timing that's all

Maybe soon there'll come a day When no more tears will fall

If we each forgive a little bit When we both look back on it

Just bad timing that's all
