We rush through our lives and our ultimate destiny will be that a Celebration of Life will be held for us. I plan to be late.
Lyrics
Fashionably Late Music and Lyrics by David Nigel Chalmers
Some folks walk fast and some walk slow
Some don’t care which way they go.
Some folks frown and some folks smile
They know the journey’s been worthwhile
Some look around; enjoy the scene
Some can’t recall where they’ve been
So many things that I’ve been through
I’m glad I spent my time with you
Don’t worry baby if we miss the bus
Taxi will be waiting for both of us
Let’s make some love and drink some wine
And we’ll be home in plenty of time.
The train’s about to leave the station
To take us to our destination
I hope our hosts will have to wait
I plan to be fashionably late.
Instrumental
The story happens much too fast
There’s not much future Just lots of past
Can’t do much to change the plan
Let’s hold this moment long as we can
Let’s look around; enjoy the scene
And savour everywhere we’ve been
So many things that I’ve been through
I’m glad I spent my time with you
Don’t worry baby if we miss the bus
Taxi will be waiting for both of us
Let’s make some love and drink some wine
And we’ll be home in plenty of time.
The train’s about to leave the station
To take us to our destination
They might as well just lock the gate
I plan to be fashionably late.
