To Late To Turn Back Lyrics

Wait until dawn 

The streets will be cool and clean again 

Then it's time to go downstairs 

And meet the man 

He'll be sittin' in a limo with a gun in his hand 

You've been waitin' like this for years 

Through all the laughter and the cloudy tears 

Always standin' on a tightrope 

Through a million little bands 

Always waitin' for redemption 

Now it's right at hand 



You'll hear me tickin' like a time bomb 

Ready ready to explode 

Too late to turn back now 

I've gone beyond overload 

You'll hear me tickin' like a time bomb 

Ready ready to ignite 

It's now or never, my darlin', 

It's too late to turn back tonight 



Nothin' left to gain 

Just more of the same old thing again 

Always runnin' round in circles 

Always workin' for the man

But tonight I'm breakin' out of here 

Tonight I'm gonna make a stand 

I've never felt so alive 

My heart is on fire and so is my mind 

Now it's time to go downstairs 

And meet the man 

Catch his look of confusion 

When I take him by the hand 



He'll hear me tickin' like a time bomb...
