Lyrics
TOO LATE
(Verse 1)
Girl, I really wanna know
How you hid the truth so close
While you danced around my heart all night long
Now I finally see it clear
All those whiskey-covered tears
Fake love never really felt like home--
(Chorus)
Cause it's
Too late...
Too late...
Too late for another try
Yeah it's
Too late
Too late
Too late
To say you're still mine...--
(Verse 2)
Now your picture's face-down here
By the smoke and empty beers
And your memory keeps burning through my mind
I gave everything I had
Every good thing, every last
But your goodbye left this cowboy behind
(Chorus)
Cause it's
Too late...
Too late...
Too late to make it right
Yeah it's
Too late
Too late
Too late
To hold me one more night...
(Bridge)
You can call me in the midnight rain
Say my name like nothing changed
But these broken roads don't lead back home
I was holding on too long
Now the last light's almost gone
And tonight I'm better off alone
(Chorus)
Cause it's
Too late...
Too late...
Too late for another try
Yeah it's
Too late
Too late
Too late
To say you're still mine...
