Missed the Boat

[Verse 1]
She wants a man on Sunday mornin'
To get up and take her to church
She wants a man comes home at night
His mind ain't back at work
She wants somebody to listen
When her world starts closin' in
She don't wanna lay awake at night
Wonderin' where he's been

[Chorus]
I guess I showed up a little too late
She stuck around till she couldn't wait
You only get so many blue skies
And just for once in her lifetime
Somebody else is holdin' her now
Somewhere watchin' the sun go down
She's sailin' away the way she always hopеd
And I think I missed the boat

[Verse 2]
She always triеd to make things right and go the extra mile
She always said there's a fine line between hope and denial
She always wanted that hero
She'd spend her whole life with
I always thought one of these days it'd be me ridin' in

[Chorus]
I guess I showed up a little too late
She stuck around till she couldn't wait
You only get so many blue skies
Just for once in her lifetime
Somebody else is holdin' her now
Somewhere watchin' the sun go down
She's sailin' away the way she always hoped
And I think I missed the boat

[Bridge]
That ship has sailed I know
There's a message in this bottle but I think that's all she wrote

[Chorus]
I guess I showed up a little too late
She stuck around till she couldn't wait
You only get so many blue skies
And just once in her lifetime
Somebody else is holdin' her now
Somewhere watchin' the sun go down
She's sailin' away the way she always hoped
And I think I missed the boat

[Outro]
I think I missed the boat
That ship has sailed I know
I think I missed the boat
