[Verse 1]

Hey, it's me what a big surprise

Calling you up from a restaurant 'round the bend

Just got in from way up North

I'm achin' tired now, and I could use a friend

I might be a fool

To think that you do

Wanna see me again

[Verse 2]

I know it's been a while since I talked to you

Nothing wrong, just nothing ever goes as planned

Many times I thought I'd call

I didn't have your number in my hand

I know it's true

That you'd never do

The same thing to me

[Chorus]

I never meant to make you cry

And though I know I shouldn't call

It just reminds us of the cost

Oh, of 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 that's all

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

We used to have so many plans

Something always seemed to turn out wrong

I 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

[Chorus]

I never meant to make you cry

And though I know I shouldn't call

It just reminds us of the cost

Oh, of 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 that's all

We each forgive a little bit

And we both look back on it

As just bad timing that's all
