It`s Too Late - The Streets
She said Meet me
at the gates at eight
Leave now don't be late
She said one day
she'd walk away
Cause I was always late
Thought things were okay
Didn't care though anyway
Say Sorry babe
I had to meet a mate
Tempting fate
We first met through a shared view
She loved me and I did too
It's now seven-fifty
Getting ready better be nifty
Do my hair quickly
Step out it's cloudy
Mate bells me to borrow money
I've got two Henrys
and a dealer to pay
Call up on geezers
to rid these green trees
From my reeking jeans
Got a you-think-I-care air
Out glaring geezers' stares
I'm here and I'm there
Couldn't see past the end of my beer
What was getting near
All of the silence after the tears
I didn't know it was over
Till it was too late too late
But if I ever needed you
Would you be there
She said Meet me
at the gates don't be late
But pretty soon the day
came for change
And I was glad
she never walked away
So I'm choosing what to wear
Doing my hair
with an hour to spare
When my life went pear
She'd been there
with a fixed stare
Big wheel climbed to the top
Geezers' stares bounced off
Standing at the top of
this huge mountain
Smiling and shouting
Spring flowers sprouting
Not one inch of doubt in my mind
As I reached the gates
Came around the corner at a rate
Risked her love
But I was gonna set things straight
Never again am I gonna be late
Never again am I gonna be late
Never again am I gonna be late
I didn't know it was over
Till it was too late too late
But if I ever needed you
Would you be there
I said meet me at the gates
Leave now don't be late
I waited for a while
Listening to her voice mail
Mind set sail
Then the facts turned me pale
Wind rain hail
My fears unveiled
for my fair female
She'd walked away
Too little to late
I step up the pace
Walk past the gate
Rain runs over my face
Spirit falls from grace
I purchase a hazy escape
at the alcohol place
In the chase I sat down
got a fat frown
Weeping and drown in my senses
For this love game's expensive
I walk in a trance
Got a wounded soldier stance
And the everyday geezers'
stares throw me off balance
Now nothing holds significance
And nothing holds relevance
'Cause the only thing
I can see is her elegance
I didn't know it was over
Till it was too late too late
But if I ever needed you
Would you be there
I didn't know it was over
Till it was too late too late
But if I ever needed you
Would you be there
