Deadline

Chocolates from Paris, my girl just sent them
I'll eat them later, she says they're expensive
Sat in the kitchen, dust on the boxes
Melted away before I got to taste them
Don't know what you got until it's gone
Only text you back when you don't call
Only miss the winter when it's hot
Can't add another hour to the clock
Tell me why

I keep chasing the deadline
Late to parties all my life
'Cause everyday the sun will always rise
I never have to try 'cause I got time
So I, I keep chasing the deadline

I miss my parents, they said I should visit
Told them I would once the album was finished
That was last August, can't make this Christmas
Sold out two shows, had to cancel the ticket, yeah
How many birthdays and occasions do I miss until it's too late? Yeah
I'm not the only one blowing out candles on cakes, yeah

I keep chasing the deadline
Late to parties all my life

'Cause everyday the sun will always rise
I never have to try 'cause I got time
So I, I keep chasing the deadline

Smell all the flowers, see all the colors
Go on that trip, you've been saving for summer
Tell her you love her, forgive your brother
'Cause in the end all we got is each other
Smell all the flowers, see all the colors
Go sing off key in a room full of strangers
Tell her you love her, forgive your brother
'Cause in the end all we got is each other

I keep chasing the deadline
Late to parties all my life
'Cause everyday the sun will always rise
I never have to try 'cause I got time
So I, I keep chasing the deadline

All we got is each other
All we got is each other
All we got is each other
All we got is each other
All we got is each other
All we got is each other
All we got is each other
All we got is each other
