Lately
Lately more or less I’m feeling less incomplete
I got no direction so I follow my feet
And when I think on everything my heart skips a beat
Lately
Lately

It’ll come clean in the wash Know that much is true
You could not foresee that this would happen to you
Best to sit and wait until the sun’s breaking through
Lately
Lately

Lately you’ve been talking and you don’t make no sense
And from what you say she’s got your back to the fence
And from what I see it’s hard for you to find strength
Lately
Lately

What do you need?
What’s the hurry?
And ain’t it cruel when people are unkind
What’s the fear?
What’s the worry?
Move forward now and leave the past behind

You could wish your whole life through
Be a sleepy John
Choose your favourite poison on the way to get gone
If that’s what you’re thinking then I got to move on
Lately
Lately
What do you need?
What’s the hurry?
And ain’t it cruel when people are unkind
What do you fear
What’s the worry?
Move forward now and leave the past behind

Lately I’ve been looking out for bells when they ring
Bells for you and bells for me, a beautiful thing
Been a long time coming soon my ship will come in
