Too Little, Too Late

The whole town is talking 'bout how you've fallen in love I read in the papers, he's someone that girls dream about Some kind of ruler on top of a kingdom I'm just a jester, I'll never be him Last night, you called to me It almost killed me To hear you scream my name Your smile still kills the same I almost turned around You chased me to the ground You asked me how I've been, but how do I begin To tell you I should've chased you 'cross every single state I lay down my sword for fate 'Cause it's too little way too late I didn't need the reminder of things I've done wrong Of promises broken, fragility hidden in song Guess that we're soulmates in different lifetimes What if you leave him, throw me a lifeline I know that you're happy But it just killed me To hear you scream my name A clear fucking X-ray of if I'd stuck around I swear to God, I almost drowned You asked me how I've been, but how could I begin To tell you I should've chased you I should be who you're engaged to Lost my fight with fate A tug-of-war of leave and stay I give in, I abdicate I lay my sword down anyway I'll see you at Heaven's gate 'Cause it's too little, way too late I'll toast outside your wedding day Whisper vows, I'll never say to you 'Cause it's too little, all too late
