I'm Running Late (That's the Question)
Music by Ray Gallon, lyrics by Angela Verbrugge

The debut of this fun tune which we hope we become embraced by other vocalists. "It's like "Twisted" for the next generation of singers!", exclaimed Freddie Bryant, jazz guitarist, when he first heard it premiered at the Vermont Jazz Center. "I'm Running Late" was composed by the pianist on the album, Ray Gallon, and previously copyrighted by as an instrumental entitled "That's the Question" and recorded by the Harper Bros with Ray Gallon. Angela added the lyrics in 2017. 

I'm running late but as I head out the gate, oh wait!
Where did my keys go? Oops a stain!
Could that be my train leaving now? It is! No!
Not a moment to be spared now.

I'm running late but as I head to our date, oh wait!
Forgot my iphone! Different shoes!
Dishwasher is getting repaired today.

There's so much rain, 
Oh what a pain,
Inopportune,
Good afternoon! (I saw my old boyfriend).

I should hang up,
Where is the pup,
I'm out of time,
But it's lunchtime! (Just a quick bite to eat!?)

I'm running late I must have slept much too late
Ding dong, there goes the doorbell.
Disarray! Will I make it on time for class today?
That's the question!
I'm runnin'. I wish I had left ten minutes ago.

Second Chorus:
I’m running late because I thought it was eight
o’clock I had to be there.
So confused!
Misused when I should be excused 
Now you 
say
That you can't wait much longer.

I’m running late because I stopped to donate
some blood, there is a shortage.
Made you wait?
Grandmother is not doing well today.

There’s so much snow, 
Forty below,
Had to tiptoe,
There’s a rainbow!
(Stopped to post to Facebook.)

Drank too much booze,
Must have hit “snooze",
Got new tattoos,
Singing the blues
(Just a sec t'catch my breath.)

I’m running late because I guess it’s my fate
To press.... my luck to get there.
Overdue!
Will a taxi saviour come through today? 
That’s the question!
I’m scramblin'.
I wish I had left ten minutes ago.

I'm Running Late (instrumentally: "That's The Question")

Hello , I'm Matt , born in 1967 , Half Welsh / Irish - half Latvian .
I have ended up mostly writing songs , mostly on acoustic guitar but some with synth . I am still pitching to music libraries . If you know anyone or if you have an unusual voice , don't be shy , give me a shout . I won't pay for promotion .

I try to notice the things other people miss ; The way someone smiles at you when they like you , the way they smile at you when they don't  . Also the nature that surrounds me in this country they call Wales
