Couplet 1

I know that seasons change
But still it always
Take me by surprise

Couplet 2

I pretend I'm in control
Arranging all the pieces of my life

Refrain 1

Then one day my son stopped
Holding my hand
And I knew I had to let
The boy become a man
If it were up to me
It came too soon

Post-Refrain

But maybe he was
Right on time
Right on time
Right on time

Couplet 3

I could see the smoke
Long before my life
Went up in flames

Couplet 4

Oh But some things must be lost
If they ever have a hope
Of being saved

Refrain 2

Lying on the bathroom floor in tears
Praying for a miracle
To come and meet me here
I was afraid it was too late

Post-Refrain

But maybe I was
Right on time
Right on time
Right on time

Pont

When you're falling apart
And it's breaking your heart
You can't see any reason
Or find any meaning
There's a valley
You have to get through
You can't hurry 'cause
It won't let you
But it's leading us somewhere
And when we finally get there

Post-Refrain

We're right on time

Couplet 5

I'm sorry for the times
I was afraid my life was
Slipping through Your hands

Refrain 3

When we look back
At the end of our lives
Will we see the way You made straight
Every crooked line
Maybe by then
We won't be surprised

Post-Refrain

To find that
You were right on time
Always right on time
Right on time
