late bloomer

sugarwater to the brim

they told me it'd be spring

early september and my first

glimpse of tiny wings

summer's coming to an end

magnolias are in bloom

well

birmingham this time of year

is giving me hope

too

giving me hope

too

i'm a late bloomer

i'm a late bloomer

this is surely true

it doesn't matter when you bloom

it matters that you do

keeping track and countin' down

again

i'm overdue

watching everyone around

get there before i do

looking in the mirror

at this

body that betrays

but looking out the window

late bloomers on parade

late bloomers on parade

i'm a late bloomer

i'm a late bloomer

this is surely true

it doesn't matter when you bloom

it matters that you do

yeah

i'm a late bloomer

i'm a late bloomer

this is surely true

it doesn't matter when you bloom

it matters that you do

it matters that you do

it matters that you do

it matters that you do

it matters that you do

it matters that you do

it matters that you do

it matters that you do

it's doesn't matter when you bloom

it matters that you do
