Jordan Zevon - Too Late To Be Saved lyrics
Your rating:
There's a message in this bottle And I'll drink until I find it 'Cause I've searched my soul for answers And discovered I was blinded Found my reflection in the pools of disregard Fed in streams from water rings Collecting on this bar Where I'm pouring over memories But they only help remind me Of a timeline mined with should haves And the fading chance of could be Lived in the moment but it didn't get me far Just a few more tragedies to sing to my guitar And they say I'll find my faith All I have to do is pray But as I'm winding down the days I know it's too late to be saved Too late to be saved The path of righteousness is one That I've never walked upon Only look to heaven When I want to check the weather No hidden message in my verse No need to play it in reverse Spare your needing Save your own soul I'll take care of me Just a sinner in a saint's façade And with a faith like mine you know I pray there's no God To answer to What would I say? Tell him, 'sorry for all the tings I've done But take a good look down I'm not the only one' and they he'd Wish me well and send me straight to Hell Lived in the moment but it didn't get me far Just a few more tragedies to sing to my guitar And they say I'll find my faith All I have to do is pray But as I'm winding down the days I know it's too late to be saved Too late to be saved
