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) But I'm bleeding deep inside
(It's late) 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
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 tryin' to work it out
I ain't got long
You ain't got long
We gotta know what this life is all about
Too late
Too late much too late
You're staring at me
With suspicion in your eyes
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 alright
(It's late) But it's time to set me free
(It's late) 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
(It's late it's late it's late it's late)
(It's late it's late it's late it's late)
It's all too late
