“11 o’clock”
© 2004 Diane Waters & Jason Brawner(ASCAP)
I try to catch up to my life
Try to wake up, try to get it right
Try to get to a place
I don’t have to fight anymore
We got love but act like friends
I want to take a chance but it all could end
Gotta get to a place
I don’t have to cry anymore
The road is long
You gotta hold on
Chorus
It’s eleven o’clock, my finest hour
for charging out the gate
storming up the tower
it was almost to late
but I just found the power
it’s eleven o’clock
here I go
Living on the wrong side
two steps short of the deadline
And I’m hailing the backend
of a taxicab
Gotta get close to you somehow
Then I get lost in the here and now
I wanna have it all
But this is all we have
The road is long
You gotta hold on
Chorus
Bridge
I’m dreaming up so high
But I’m living down here low
I have the wings to fly
But time won’t let me go
Chorus
Outro
Everything seems to happen, when it’s almost over, everything seems to happen, when its almost too late, (repeat), it’s too late-it’s too late-it’s too late, everything seems to happen, when it’s almost over, everything seems to happen when it’s almost too late, it’s eleven o’clock, mmm, here we go
