Timing Is Everything Lyrics - Country Strong - Garrett Hedlund

When the stars line up 

And you catch a break 

People think you're lucky 

But you know its grace 

It can happen so fast 

Or a little bit late 

Timing is everything 

You know I've had close calls 

When it could've been me 

I was young when I learned just how fragile life can be 

I lost friends of mine 

I guess it wasn't my time 

Timing is everything 

And I could've been the child that God took home, 

And I would've been one more unfinished song 

And when it seems a rhyme is hard to find 

That's when one comes along 

Just in time 

I remember that day 

When our eyes first met 

You ran into the building to get out of the rain 

Cause you were soaking wet 

And as I held the door 

You wanted to know my name 

Timing is everything 

And I could've been another minute late 

And you'd never would've crossed my path that day 

And when it seems true love is hard to find 

That's when love comes along 

Just in time 

You can call it fate 

Or destiny 

Sometimes it really seems like its a mystery 

Cause you can be hurt by love 

Or healed by the same 

Timing is everything 

It can happen so fast 

Or a little too late 

Timing is everything
