[Verse 1]
Text says “on my way”
I know what that means
I could cook a whole meal
Finish three TV scenes
Got a seat at the table
Shoes by the door
Check the clock
Check my patience
It’s you I’m waiting for
[Chorus]
Bailey’s always late
Never on the dot
Always on my nerves
Bailey’s always late
Running on a time zone nobody has heard
You say “five more minutes”
I hear “don’t you dare wait up”
But I still stay
‘Cause Bailey’s always late
And I still always show up
[Verse 2]
Birthday cake with the candles
Melted to the plate
Group chat blowing up like
“How long we gonna wait?”
You walk in
Stealing the spotlight
Laughing “did I miss much?”
Yeah
Just the whole beginning
But we cave with every hug
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I swear I’m done
I swear I’m through
Next time I’ll leave before you do
But there you are
Out of breath at my gate
Holding flowers from the corner store
Saying “sorry
Got here as fast as I could”
And somehow I’m okay to wait
[Chorus]
