Timing Is Everything

We play the game, we pay the price
With luck that comes and goes
No matter what the Gods decide
We always spoil their show

Just like when you are finally near
The lover of your dreams
And as you stand there waiting
She turns and walks away

And you discover that
Timing is everything
You've got to get it right
Timing is everything in life

We break apart when world's collide
As everybody knows, we know it
You hear she'll be somebody's bride
And just can't let her go

So get down to the church
And let her see you once again
Before you know it she's kissing you
And throws the ring away

And then she whispers to you
"Timing is everything
You finally got it right"
Timing is everything in life
Timing is everything in life

Sooner or later all good things
Come to your heart, in life
It's a waiting game

Then you remember that
Timing is everything
You've got to get it right
Timing is everything in life

Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything
Timing is everything

We play the game, we pay the price
(Timing is everything)
No matter what the Gods decide
(Timing is everything)
We break apart when worlds collide
(Timing is everything)

We play the game, we pay the price
(Timing is everything)
No matter what the Gods decide
(Timing is everything)
We break apart when worlds collide
(Timing is everything)
