I′ve been looking and praying and waiting for years
But when I stopped looking is when you appeared
It's about time, ′cause love was way overdue
I always been patient and took pride in that
But the last couple of rounds about took me to the mat
I kept hanging on, but love was way overdue
There's rhymes and reasons for every season
So plain to see looking back
Some call it luck, some call it fate
But I call it something that obviously just had way
I'd almost given up, if you couldn′t tell
I thought my invitation got lost in the mail
All I knew was love was way overdue
There′s rhymes and reasons for every season
It's so plain to see looking back
Some call it luck, some call it faith
I call it something that obviously just had to wait
I′ve been looking and praying, waiting for years
But I can stop looking now that you're here
Guess I just thought love was way overdue
I guess I just thought love was way overdue
