Lately My Love

(albüm: Mother Lode - 1974)

Lately my love, I've been thinking it over
Got a few thoughts that I'd like to confess
I've given you pain, Lord I've brought you some sorrow
But now the time has come to pass
I finally know the truth at last

Lately my mind has been sliding from reason
I took more than I was rightfully due
Selfishness lies in the heart of most people
But now the time has come to pass
I finally know the truth at last

And what a wonderful world this must be
To put up with someone like me

All of my life I've been with people who hurry
People who worry, always thinking of me
You fill in my emptiness with your laughter
Now and here after I see a change

And all of my life I've been with people who hurry
Oh, and people who worry, always thinking of me
You fill in my emptiness with your laughter
Now and here after I see a change

Yes what a wonderful world this must be
To put up with someone like me
Lately my love I can see
What a wonderful world this must be
