Don’t Be Late (Chapter Two) Songtext
von Saga

Look at him running, there′s so far to go
He's very short of breath
And he′d said don't be late
Just don't be late
With his parcel tucked tight under his arm
He′s sure he′s passed half way
And he'd said don′t be late
Just don't be late

[Did you do everything you′re toldThe instruction you had was old]

I wasn't sure if I′d hear you
I'm glad you're still alright

[It′s all been arranged for tenThe streets should be clear by then]

I′ve done all that you told me
I'm sure that they will wait

[Their timing was made quite clearIf we′re late they will not appear]

They don't know, they don′t know
They don't know how far we′ve had to go


[Can you pick up this slowing paceYou're running a losing race]

No, soon we'll see them, then you′ll know
That I have not delayed, he said

Hurry and don′t be late
You'd better hurry, you might be late
Just hurry and don′t be late
You'd better hurry, you may be late

[If we′re late, I will not surviveThey will keep me alive]

It's not too far now
And I can only wish you luck, friend

[I′m sorry I go aloneThis metal is a cold home]

I can see them waiting
A few more steps and you'll be there, he said

Hurry and don't be late
You′d better hurry, you might be late
Just hurry and don′t be late
You'd better hurry, you may be late


Just hurry and don′t be late
You'd better hurry you may be late
