Late Bloomer

[VERSE]
Making wishes on flower petals
He loves me, he loves me not
And just like all of my friends they keep falling
All I can do is sit and watch
Wondering when I'll get my shot

[Chorus]
Just like redwoods in the forest
Maybe I'm just slow to grow
You would think that I would notice
Just like sunflowers do in a late august moon
When it comes to love
I'm a late bloomer, I'm a late bloomer

[VERSE]
Tried to be young and reckless
But I'm too conscious of all of my flaws
I'm stubborn and steady as an old oak tree
But trying to give in to it all
Like a willow's prepared to fall

[Chorus]
Just like redwoods in the forest
Maybe I'm just slow to grow
You would think that I would notice
Just like sunflowers do in a late august moon
When it comes to love
I'm a late bloomer, I'm a late bloomer

[BRIDGE]
And just like the leaves have to change
Everything has its pace
And now I'm sure

[Chorus 2]
Just like redwoods in the forest
I know I'm just slow to grow
And now I've begun to notice
Just like sunflowers do in a late august moon
When it comes to love
I'm a late bloomer, I'm a late bloomer
