Lyrics
It's Not Too Late (June 1974)
(verse 1)
There's just no reason why my love can't pleasin' you and you be pleasin' me.
There's just no reason why you should be leavin' so stop your teasing me.
I got a little money so come on honey, why don't we hit the road!
It's not much honey but it's just not funny to leave me standing in the cold.
(chorus)
And you know it;s not too late and it's not too great a sacrifice....sacrifice. (repeat)
(verse 2)
It's just not right sitting home alone at night, waiting for the right love to show.
Night after night I'm losing my sight, I think my mind is ready to go.
It's hard to be your lover when I finally discover hey, you don't care about my heart.
If I thought you had another well I never could recover, hey yeah that would tear me apart.
(repeat chorus)
(Bridge)
Tonight-tonight-tonight! Let me take you in my arms!
Tonight-tonight-tonight! What could be the harm?
Cause you know-o-ow that I love you so and I don't want you to ever go!
(verse 3)
Someday maybe you could be my baby and we could drive up to the bay.
Me with my guitar well I could be a star and you could be my Lady-A.
If I really make or if I have to fake it, I'd like to have you by my side.
One way or another well I could tell my mother, hey, I've
got a beautiful bride.
(repeat chorus)
