Story Behind The Song

This is my anthem song, and the title track of my CD Late Bloomer. It tells my story.

Song Description

It's never too late to go after the things in life that are important. Dreams can become reality, even if we are advancing in years. Late Bloomer is all about living those dreams, despite the everyday obstacles that life throws our way. It's an inspirational song about drive, determination and fulfilment.

Lyrics

Spring came and went like a through train
And left her at a starting point again
Like every year before
She sees an open door
But living interferes
And the passing of the years
Seems to consume her
And still she hopes to be
A late bloomer


Gifted with the music of an angel
The melodies she's written haven't fared well
Cos every time she tries
To make her music fly
Crazy working hours
And the family's needs somehow
The time eludes her
And still she hopes to be
A late bloomer


Opportunities, elusive like a butterfly
Settled on another flower sooner
The autumn of the seasons will be her cue
Petals will unfurl, her colors showing true...
Like a late bloomer


Early birds have been and gone before her
Summer's soaring highs have now restored her
She has paid her dues
She's ready through and through
The waiting time is over
Fulfillment has its moment
With music that will fly her to the moon
So glad she got to be
A late bloomer
