Late

You were just the neighbor living down the street

I never thought you'd want a woman like me

But you showed me a love so giving and so deep

So helpful and so caring, a promise we could keep

You wrapped my soul in everything you are

Late, you are the breath inside my lungs

You are the rhythm and the beat inside my heart

Now we are traveling the road

We were supposed to be on from the start

I love you more than any words could ever say

Beside you is where I wanna be, every step of the way

Ten years together, we built a beautiful life

Till a misunderstanding cut like a knife

I watched our world fall to pieces in the dark

Fifteen months of silence, a heavy, aching mark

I didn't know how I could make it through

Late, you are the breath inside my lungs

You are the rhythm and the beat inside my heart

Now we are traveling the road

We were supposed to be on from the start

I love you more than any words could ever say

Beside you is where I wanna be, every step of the way

But God had a purpose, He held us in His hands

He brought you back to me, just like He always planned

He knew that you and I were simply meant to be

I cannot imagine us ever being apart again, it's only you and me

Late, you are the breath inside my lungs

You are the rhythm and the beat inside my heart

Now we are traveling the road

We were supposed to be on from the start

I love you more than any words could ever say

Beside you is where I wanna be, every step of the way
