I never thought we'd meet I thought I'd wait forever
You were so beautiful I couldn't say anything clever
But I stood where I fell I asked for your number
Late in the summer is better than never
Babe you are so cool you could wipe out Al-Qaeda
And when we make love every move is hallelujah
Chained to your beauty with a leash of my bummers
Late in the summer is better than never
The Common Cuckoo and the Blue Tit too
The Gull and the Goose they fly high to mark my love for you
But the Common Cuckoo he must leave in September
Thinking late in the summer is better than never
If you'd say my love is full of greed
And that I ask too much of you
Then I'd answer you haven't seen half my needs
But we both know that's half-true
So let's slowly get married
I don't have the patience to do it quick
Let's be glued together tonight
And be sure that it will always stick
I never thought we'd meet I thought I'd wait forever
Late in the summer is better than never
I opened a book of astrology to find me and you
I searched through history to see if we made it through
Can we be happy? Can we get it together?
Late in the summer is better than never
Late in the summer is better than never
