Delayed reaction

Dave Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ASCAP

After all is said and done, it wasn't hard to be
the lonely one. Sad, but not a tear was shed, you
agreed with every word I said. I had my new life
started, I couldn't be downhearted, Days rolled
slowly by, finally you stayed out of my mind.

I filed your name under "Forgotten", and
then somebody pushed the panic button. Suddenly my
nerves were shakin', I realized I could have been
mistaken. Then like they say like you're supposed
ta', I'm ridin' on a roller coaster. I found love
too late, too bad she's not the waiting kind.

I never felt like this before, I had to use my
imagination. Love came to my door, too late for
the invitation, Delayed reaction, Reaction,
Reaction - Delayed reaction, (Reaction, Reaction).

It's a mystery to me, I don't know why our love is
history, At the time I didn't know it, and it's so
easy for a fool to blow it. You can call me a fool
now, I don't feel quite so cool now. Guess I was
out of time, love was waiting somewhere down the
line.

I never felt like this before, I had to use my
imagination. Love came to my door, too late for
the invitation, Delayed reaction, Reaction,
Reaction - Delayed reaction, (Reaction, Reaction).

My heart is growin' fonder - I don't mean Henry
and I don't mean Jane. I got the time to wonder,
if it's too late to make her mine again.
