Bad Timing Lyrics

Performed by Blue Rodeo

Hey it's me what a big surprise
Calling you up from a restaurant
Around the bend
Just got in from way up North
I'm achy and tired now
And I could use a friend
I'd be a fool
To think that you do
Want to see me again

I Know it's been awhile since I talked to you
Nothing wrong
Just nothing ever goes as planned
Many times I thought I'd call
Didn't have your number in my hand
Oh, I know it's true
You'd never do
The same thing to me

I never meant to make you cry
And though I know I shouldn't call
It just reminds us of the cost
For everything we've lost
Bad timing that's all

And maybe soon there'll come a day
When no more tears will fall
We each forgive a little bit
And we both look back on it
As just bad timing thats all

Used to have so many plans
Something always seemed to turn out wrong
Never could catch up to you
Moving on and doing all you've done
I don't know why
The harder I try
The harder it comes

I never meant to make you cry
And though I know I shouldn't call
It just reminds us of the cost
For everything we lost
Badtiming that's all

And maybe soon there'll come a day
When no more tears will fall
We each forgive a little bit
And we both look back on it
It's just bad timing that's all

We each forgive a little bit
And we both look back on it
It's just bad timing that's all

Another case of 'Bad Timing' | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/19/10

Just ran into someone I have known for years which I have always carried a secret torch for. This song brought a tear to my eye on the plane and now back at home as I continue to wonder What If? Not sure if he truly understands what he does to my heart I guess time will tell!

going through it right now | Reviewer: jay | 9/17/09

i know how everyone on here feels when they hear this song. The woman i left my wife for rejected me because of timing and now four years later we are talking again. her current boyfriend just played this song for her so i looked up th elyrics and was lead here. at least i know im not alone... and neither is she. M if your reading this know that i love you and always will regardless of what you decide.
maybe it is a case of bad timing, and maybe it is meant to happen... now or eventually. I dont know .... ok thanks everyone now im crying

What an emotional piece of music - Bad Timing. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/7/09

This song has some of the most moving lyrics of any song I've heard. Each of us can recall that one time when we met the one who was supposed to be the "one" but somehow things never woked out. Thirty years have past and I still wonder how life would have been even though I realize it wasn't meant to be. Just hope she is happy.

It was always too late with me. | Reviewer: Conner | 3/16/09

I always know it would be bad timing when our eyes meet. I never meant to make any of them cry anymore than I meant to make them love me. I see that look, tears held back,the tremble of lips, the fear of being alone,and I know I soon must go. I have already hurt them because they know I will not stay. I don't want forever with one person. I don't want to be their one person forever. It hurts too much to love. This song is me.

timeless relate | Reviewer: mike smith | 12/23/08

This song to me is a classic..I am a romantic..theres a girl I met on line who drives me crazy and can't wait to meet. We both crave for that first meeting...only a lill distance and a border and relationships keep us a part. Blue Rodeo hits us in the heart of where we live ...our relationships.

so true | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/23/08

So many relationships fail to develop because the timing is wrong. This song has applied to me in many stages of my life. It is classic and always makes me sad and wonder what could have been or what could happen if only the timing was better.

So Very True | Reviewer: Sara | 8/27/08

This song desribes a relationship I've had on and off with that "guy" in my life you know ladies the guy you know that you'd love to settle down with and he always makes your stomach go in knots but it never works out and hopefully maybe soon they'll come day it will. Blue Rodeo you say it best and MM you play the part.

bad timing | Reviewer: schmoo | 8/20/08

this is a song that was in my collection but never thought to listening the words until an old flame brought it to my attention recently... Well it hurt to hear what he had always been feeling and never told me until I was married and had a family.... I guess he is alittle to late but it sure made me think and cry ...alot.
