It's Late

You say you love me
And I hardly know your name

And if I say I love you in the candlelight
There's no-one but myself to blame
But there's something inside that's turning my mind away

Oh, how I could love you
If I could let you stay

It's late
When I'm bleeding deep inside
It's late
Ooh, is it just my sickly pride?
Too late
Even now the feeling seems to steal away
So late
Though I'm crying, I can't help but hear you say
It's late, it's late, it's late, but not too late

Yeah!

The way you love me
Is the sweetest love around

But after all this time, the more I'm trying
The more I seem to let you down
Now you tell me you're leaving
And I just can't believe it's true
Oh, you know that I can love you
Though I know I can't be true
Oh, you made me love you
Don't tell me that we're through

It's late
But it's driving me so mad
It's late
Yes, I know, but don't try to tell me that it's
Too late
Save our love, you can't turn out the lights
So late
I've been wrong, but I'll learn to be right
It's late, it's late, it's late, but not too late

I've been so long, you've been so long
We've been so long trying to work it out
I ain't got long, you ain't got long
We gotta know what this life is all about
Tell me

Try to work it out, yeah

Ooh, too late
Yeah
Too late, much too late

You're staring at me with suspicion in your eye

You say what game are you playing
What's this that you're saying?
I know that I can't reply
If I take you tonight, is it making my life a lie?

Oh, you make me wonder
Did I live my life right?

It's late
Ooh, but it's time to set me free
It's late
Ooh yes, I know, but there's no way it has to be
Too late
So let the fire take our bodies this night
So late
Let the waters take our guilt in the tide, now
It's late, it's late, it's late, it's late
It's late, it's late, it's late

Oh, it's all too late

Whoa, oh, it's too late
Come on
I'm late, ooh, late
Oh yeah
