Too Late

Nuno Bettencourt

There you were a mile away

You thought for sure you were in Rome

And then I showed up with myself

One second lasts forever



It's too late

But I should have known better

It's too late

You know, I should have known better

It's too late

Yeah, I should have known better

Where do we go from here?



Last time I saw you, your throat was a savage

It opened up my whole chest

My heart fell onto the ground and it

Bruised the grass, made a mess



I remember how the moon was cracked

The clouds were dirty so you went

And drank the light till it was dark

A sudden snow in summer



Too late

But I should have known better

It's too late

You know, I should have known better

It's too late

Yeah, I should have known better

Where do we go from here?



I saw the vertical plunge of a dream

The human pain,the work of art

I fell for your skeleton,diving in deep

The love was deep

Your love was quicksand



I feel the wisdom of your feet

The miles and miles they walked

The night you held the earth between your knees

I couldn't stop the bleeding



It's too late
