Timing Is Everything Lyrics by Trace Adkins (orig. Natalie Hemby)

When the stars line up
And you catch a good break,
people think you're lucky,
but you know it's Grace.
It can happen so fast,
or a little bit late.
Timing is everything.

you know i've had close calls
when it could have been me.
i was young when i learned just how fragile like can be.
i lost friends of mine,
i guess it wasn't my time.
Timing is everything.

And i could have been a child that got too cold,
and i would have 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 have been another minute late,
and you would have never crossed that path that day.
And when it seems true love is hard to find,
that's when love comes along, just in time.

Well you can call it fate or destiny.
Sometimes it really seems like it's a mystery,
'cause you can be hurt by love
or healed by the same.
Timing is everything.

And it can happen so fast,
or a little bit late.
Timing is everything.
