"Love Overdue" lyrics

"Love Overdue"

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've always been patient
And took pride in that
But the last couple of rounds
'Bout 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 to wait

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 "fate"
I call it something that obviously just had to wait

I've been looking, 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
