Late To The Party I came late to the party, and the table was bare You had already gone, but your friends were still there They were selling your story, like Apollo survived All sound and fury, the loved work of your life It seems some people knew, right from the start What took me a lifetime, and set me apart Regrets can weigh heavy, but what can you do I was late to the party by a decade or two But the night it is young Can you still hear the drum? Cause the work, its not done And its beat just goes on I came late to the party, always ten steps behind In the arms of the music, I felt disinclined To drink and to linger or make up for lost time And reach for a laurel, that might never be mine I came late to the party, you were already gone So I sang with your friend on that unreleased song Though the night may be fleeting, and the hours did fly It still taught me something, we all catch up with time Copyright 2024 Geoffrey Raines
