Timing Is Everything Lyrics - Trace Adkins

When the stars line up 

And you catch a good break 

People think you're lucky 

But you know its grace. 

It can happen so fast 

Or a little bit late 

Timing is everything. 

I know I've had close calls 

When it could have been me 

I was young when I learned 

Just how fragile life can be. 

I lost friends of mine. 

I guess it wasn't my time, 

Timing is everything. 

I could have been a child that God took home 

And I would have been one more un-finished song. 

And when it seems the rhyme is hard to find 

That's when one comes a long 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. 

I could have been another minute late 

And you never would have crossed my path that day 

When it seems true love is hard to find 

That's when love comes along just in time. 

You can call it fate 

Or destiny 

Sometimes it really seems like its a mystery 

'Cause you can be hurt by love 

Or healing by the same 

Timing is everything 

It can happen so fast 

Or a little bit late 

Timing is everything.
