Too Little Too Late Lyrics

Graduation day and you sum up broke

Shuffled your feet and then bummed a smoke

You were so convinced that it all went great

No one there to tell you it's too little too late



Too little too late, she waited long enough

For you to make the first move with a little love

But you never took charge, you never did act

She got the short end of the stick and that's a fact



It's a long way there and a long way back

She was ready to go with you; she was already packed

But when the limo pulled up and you made her wait

Then you changed your mind too little too late



Too little too late, she doesn't hate you enough

To stop you from feeling so victimized

So far so good it's gone way past the point

To stop you from feeling so good inside



Cause you're always first rate, and you're always top shelf

And you're never really wrong if you say so yourself

You're a great big man at a broken gate

Trying hard to get inside too little too late



When you get to the part where she's gone for good

Better take stock of what's understood





And you had your chance and you dropped the ball

Like a deer in the headlights, and that's not all

She learned the hard way she just didn't relate

Now she doesn't really worry, it's too little too late
