It's A Little Late

(album: Whatever Will Be - 2005)

I trembled in your presence
I was lost the very minute
That you came my way
There was no escape

I pictured us together
But you told me you weren't ready
Said it's much too soon
That's a year ago

You asked me to be patient
So I told myself that I could wait
And time went by
Somehow it's different now

So if you start to make regrets
It's a little late

All that you've been wishing for
Was right in your hands
But you covered your eyes
When you could have seen through its disguise
You didn't realize
All that you've been wishing for
Was not out of reach
You discovered as I walked away
You complained
But it won't bring me back
Can't you see that
It's a little late

Everything's the opposite
of what it used to be
I guess and now you know
what I was going through

You are counting days apart
But can't find one way to win back
My heart but babe
What is it they say

Good things come to those who wait
Not if you only hesitate
Like you in doubt
So your time ran out

So if you start to make regrets
It's a little late

All that you've been wishing for
Was right in your hands
But you covered your eyes
When you could have seen through its disguise
You didn't realize
All that you've been wishing for
Was not out of reach
You discovered as I walked away
You complained
But it won't bring me back
Can't you see that
It's a little late

It's a little late
You had it all
It was right in your hands
Maybe you by now start to regret mistakes
It is much too late
