(Chorus)
My heart is never on time
Always a little behind
Oh when it’s about to break
I close my eyes and count to ten

(Verse 1)
She said son, hold on
You will find, somebody to love
If you pray hard, to your god
He will lay her on a golden pod

She won’t be a sinner
Like angelina, nor like the woman from ipanema
This time
Don’t hold a torch to the sun

(Chorus)
My heart is never on time
Always a little behind
Oh when it’s about to break
I close my eyes and count to ten

(Verse 2)
She said love, it’s not your fault
That I found me somebody to love
You waited too long to show me that song
I was late then with his second son
It was dead of winter
And I was bitter
From the bickering of your preacher
This time
Don’t hold a torch to the sun

(Chorus)
My heart is never on time
Always a little behind
Oh when it’s about to break
I close my eyes and count to ten

My heart is never on time
Always a little behind
Oh when it’s about to break
I close my eyes and count to ten

(Verse 3)
When it’s about, when it’s about to break
I call upon, the angel gabriel
When it’s about, when it’s about to break
Suddenly, I’m a child of israel

When it’s about, when it’s about
When it’s about, oh when it’s about
When it’s about, when it’s about to break
I call upon, Mr Jack Daniel
