I Waited Too Long

Richard Hamersma

Genre: Adult Contemporary/Pop/Country Pop

Feeling blue can be exhausting! Sometimes the only cure is to move on to a new day and a more cheerful version of your “blue” self.

 

Waiting room

The morning was slow moving
Just like so many in the past
Trying to erase the traces
From the night that just passed

I was left with my thoughts
Felt a strong sense of regret
If you could live a thousand lifetimes
Some things you'll never forget

Why had I waited too long
To ask what I needed to know
And why did you leave with no good-bye
Just like a fading rainbow

I can still see your smiles
Cause in my dreams you're still here
But with my eyes wide open
I can't find you anywhere

Maybe you thought I couldn't become
Who you wanted me to be
Maybe I took too much for granted
In those smiles you had for me

Why had I waited too long
To ask what I needed to know
And why did you leave with no good-bye
Just like a fading rainbow

Sometime the ones we love
Suddenly slip away
With no clear answer
Just why they didn't stay

Why had I waited too long
To ask what I needed to know
And why did you leave with no good-bye
Just like a fading rainbow

Why had I waited too long—waited too long
