“Darlin' Don’t Be Late” is told from the perspective of Theo’s late father, impatiently waiting for the rest of his family to arrive in heaven.
In a live performance of the song, Theo went into the story behind the song and said the idea of it came to him while talking to his sister as her own moth...
[Verse 1]
Meet me at the gate
Darlin', don't be late
The top's already rolled down
The bed's already made
I'm still so impatient
Some things never change
You're still takin' your sweet time
It still drives me insane
[Chorus]
I'm still wearin' my faded T-shirt
Driving an orange Beamer
One more goodbye, then I'll be on my way
So darlin', don't be late
[Verse 2]
You were never happy
And I was never home
Those two things were related
Which came first, I'll never know
But none of that shit matters now
'Cause no one's keepin' score
And no one's gonna judge you
When you walk through that door
I will be waiting for ya
[Chorus]
Wearing my faded T-shirt
Driving an orange Beamer
One more goodbye, then I'll be on my way
So darlin', don't be late
[Verse 3]
I know that you're worried
That you're getting close
To giving up the good fight
And heading for the coast
So when you meet that moment
Just know that you'll be safe
I'll catch you on the flip side
Of that white marshmallow haze
But you know that I hate to wait
I'll be
[Alternate Chorus]
Wearing my faded T-shirt
Driving an orange Beamer
I'll be smokin' Elysian reefer
I've been waiting too long just to see ya
So I can kiss you goodbye, then I'll be on my way
So darlin', don't be late
