LATE

Lyrics & music written by Marque

From the album Pirate of my soul (2003)

I’m counting people

Walking through doors

The man who’s working there

He stares at me

He must wondering

If I am crazy

Cause since two hours

I am standing here

I am waiting for my lady

Might be rain or snow

I don’t move

And I don’t go

And the only thing I hate

She will be too late

Waiting in the rain

A hundred people passed, it’s great

But she will be too late

Waiting in the rain

(Keeps me waiting on)

A hundredfifteen, yeah

Try to imagine

What she would do

If I would wait no more

The man keeps staring

I must looking (looking yeah)

Like one of those, one of those

Who ain’t got no home

But I am waiting for my baby

Might be rain or snow

I don’t move

And I don’t go

And the only thing I hate

She will be too late

Waiting in the rain

A hundred people passed, it’s great

But she will be too late

Waiting in the rain

(Keeps me waiting on)

The man keeps stairing, aha

I pretend he’s not there

But he, but he keeps coming straight

He keeps coming straight on to me

He says: ‘Youngmen, I

Have a message for you on this phone’

I hear a voice saying:

‘Baby I won’t come anymore

Cause I met some one else baby

And it must be a little love

I don’t believe..’

This must be a fake

She’s on her way

She will be too late

Cause I am waiting in the rain

Keeps me waiting on

A hundred people passed, it’s great

But she will be too late

Waiting in the rain

(Keeps me waiting on)

And the only thing I hate

She will be too late

Waiting in the rain

(Keeps me waiting on)
