Semler - Late Bloomer Lyrics

I always wanted to be more
Than just another compliant Christian daughter
You can see it in my prom photos honey
I was underwater
I told a girl that we were soulmates
Now I don't even know the city where she lives
All my well-adjusted high school friends
Are on their second kids
But it's fine
Honey I'm fine
I'm just a late bloomer
I couldn't get here sooner
I'm just a late bloomer
Feels like I barely grew up
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Oh I wonder what it must be like
To grow up always knowing your face
It took years to recognize myself
But it was worth the wait
And I'm jealous of people I don't know
Who always had a hand to hold
I'm bitter I could never make it work
Yeah I'm taller than I once was
But growing pains hurt
I'm just a late bloomer
I couldn't get here sooner
I'm just a late bloomer
Feels like I barely grew up
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
And the kid in the yearbook is lovely
But she's nothing like me
I think she was always hoping that one day we'd meet
And we did
Oh you made it
You were a late bloomer
You couldn't get here sooner
You were a late bloomer
Took some time and you grew up
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
I'm just a late bloomer
I wish I could've been myself sooner
Ask me about my past
And I'll say I never knew her
I'm just a late bloomer
I wish I could've been myself sooner
Ask me about my past
And I'll say I never knew her
I'm just a late bloomer
I wish I could've been myself sooner
Ask me about my past
And I'll say I never knew her

I always wanted to be more
Than just another compliant Christian daughter
You can see it in my prom photos honey
I was underwater
I told a girl that we were soulmates
Now I don't even know the city where she lives
All my well-adjusted high school friends
Are on their second kids
But it's fine
Honey I'm fine
I'm just a late bloomer
I couldn't get here sooner
I'm just a late bloomer
Feels like I barely grew up
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Oh I wonder what it must be like
To grow up always knowing your face
It took years to recognize myself
But it was worth the wait
And I'm jealous of people I don't know
Who always had a hand to hold
I'm bitter I could never make it work
Yeah I'm taller than I once was
But growing pains hurt
I'm just a late bloomer
I couldn't get here sooner
I'm just a late bloomer
Feels like I barely grew up
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
And the kid in the yearbook is lovely
But she's nothing like me
I think she was always hoping that one day we'd meet
And we did
Oh you made it
You were a late bloomer
You couldn't get here sooner
You were a late bloomer
Took some time and you grew up
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
Baby bloom
I'm just a late bloomer
I wish I could've been myself sooner
Ask me about my past
And I'll say I never knew her
I'm just a late bloomer
I wish I could've been myself sooner
Ask me about my past
And I'll say I never knew her
I'm just a late bloomer
I wish I could've been myself sooner
Ask me about my past
And I'll say I never knew her
