Late Bloomer

Oh, late bloomer, the rumors were true
 You know, I checked your ID when you left the room
 I didn't want to see it coming, I showed off my heart
 Now there's a scar in the shape of a question mark
 Oh, late bloomer, the rumors were true
 And scattered leaves are all that's left of you
 I never thought I'd be the marrying kind
 It was nothing to be always left behind
 From the ship that was sailed with everyone on it
 I said, Give me the land, I know what I want and where I'm wanted
 But you came in whistling, I'll go if you'll go
 And I was waiting around to play like an old piano
 [Chorus]
 And honey, I couldn't see the trouble
 Sleeping down deep, where these lights won't go
 I couldn't see the trouble underneath
 I set my sights on what was all right
 My will didn't know where these lights won't go
 I couldn't see the trouble underneath
 Who knew it would be you through the wall,
 Listening in to a voice on a call
 And hearing the strings and shoot 'em up sure
 Little did I know then, oh little did I know
 Long before listening forever
 Was shot down before it was ever delivered
 [Chorus]
 Oh, late bloomer, the rumors were true
 I checked your ID, what was it I knew
 I didn't want to see it coming, I showed off my heart
 Now there's a scar in the shape of a question mark
 Oh, late bloomer, the rumors were true
 And scattered leaves are all that's left of you
 [Chorus]
