It was too late for us a long long time ago

I can't explain why we don't part I just don't know

To be together only happy now and then

It's much too late for us that's how it's always been

Wasting years together surely is a sin

To know no peace of mind that's how it's always been

Why did they wait so long to let us know

It was too late for us a long long time ago

[ steel - piano ]

Can we continue on this way just being friends

We're growing more apart each day where will it end

Why don't you leave me all you have to do is go

It was too late for us a long long time ago

It was too late for us a long long time ago
