    Better Late Than Forever


    Verse:
    We were in the sand by the lifeguard stand
    Just beyond the boardwalk lights
    We didn’t stop because we thought
    That we found love that night

    By the end of summer we both wondered
    If we should take a break
    We agreed but then she told me
    She was two weeks late

    Pre-Chorus:
    Everything turned out fine and I never will forget her
    A scare like that makes you realize better late than forever

    Chorus:
    Your parachute opens right before you hit
    You get that last life boat of a sinkin’ ship
    You find the clouds silver linin’ in stormy weather
    That’s when you know better late than forever

    Verse:
    I was twenty one knee-deep in love
    With a blonde from LSU
    She was tall and lean a school boys dream
    And man the things she knew

    The date was set and our parents met
    There was nothin’ left to do
    But she had plans with my best man
    There went the honeymoon

    Pre-Chorus:
    It hurt bad when I found out and I wished I never met her
    It took a little while to realize better late than forever

    Chorus:
    Your parachute opens right before you hit
    You get that last life boat of a sinkin’ ship
    You find the clouds silver linin’ in stormy weather
    That’s when you know better late than forever

    Bridge:
    Duck that punch, Dodge that Bullet
    Get on with your life

    Chorus:
    Your parachute opens right before you hit
    You get that last life boat of a sinkin’ ship
    You find the clouds silver linin’ in stormy weather
    That’s when you know better late than forever
