Lyrics
Chorus: Don?t wait until it?s too late. Don?t wait until it?s too late.
Lead It should not take a fatality
to make us see reality
It does not have to be our fate
to understand it all too late
We cannot tell what the future brings.
We shouldn?t dwell on petty things.
Chorus: Don?t wait until it?s too late. Don?t wait until it?s too late.
We need to be more introspective
We need to seek a true perspective.
We need not be clairvoyant
To simply see they?re important
Be sure that you prioritize
before you need to sympathize.
Chorus: Don?t wait until it?s too late. Don?t wait until it?s too late.
We all should try to reconcile
While we still have time to smile.
Don?t let something happen first.
Don?t wait until you hear the worst.
Don?t wait until they pass away
to say the things you ought to say.
Chorus: Don?t wait until it?s too late. Don?t wait until it?s too late.
Short Musical Interlude: Guitar or keyboard
I remember my brother John.
I should have hugged him, but now he?s gone.
I guess I figured that I had time,
He was barely twenty nine.
And then there was my brother Jim
He never knew I was proud of him.
Chorus: Don?t wait until it?s too late. Don?t wait until it?s too late.
Please don?t make the same mistake.
You never know when the Lord will take.
Please don?t wait for fatality
To make you see reality.
You?ll have nothing to regret,
if you forgive and then forget.
Chorus: Don?t wait until it?s too late. Don?t wait until it?s too late.
Don?t wait until it?s too late.
