Lyrics
Here she comes with her schoolgirl smile and her eyes of china blue
And the green and yellow hair band she bought on the avenue
And the ring down on her finger that did not come from me
Too late, too late, I was too late in her life?s history
WHEN I GO HOME
SKIES GROW DIM
WHEN I GO HOME ALONE
SHE GOES HOME TO HIM
She thinks we?re just good friends, but how could she ever know?
I smile when she tells me things they?ve done, I never let my feelings show
Sometimes I just want to hold her, though that could never be
Too late, too late, I was too late, and oh what misery
CHORUS
Where is the justice here?
It?s just not fair
I?m such a lonely boy
While he runs his fingers through her chestnut hair
Are they really good together? Do they get along that well?
If I had only met her first...ah, but who could tell?
Her eyes may always smile but some things they?ll never see
Too late, too late, I was too late, she was not meant for me
CHORUS 2X
She goes home to him
She goes home to him
