I can't remember the last time
I saw you tongue-tied
Choking on the words you speak
You thought that I could be kept out
Now you're nothing but a vacant seat
I thought that we had a good thing
Now I feel so incomplete
You say it was all just a mistake
But I don't think I believe
It's too late, too late
I gave you the best that I had but you held back
Now you hate what you can't have
I can't erase the past but I'll pretend
Not to notice when I see you
Making eyes at me from across the room
You know I'm not the one that you'll be going home with
And you can't take it
There's so much I can say to you
But I think I'll hold my tongue
'Cause what's the point of hanging on
When I'd rather just be done
With all the games that you insist on playing
Take your good intentions
Leave the way you came
It's too late, too late
I gave you the best that I had but you held back
Now you hate what you can't have
I can't erase the past but I'll pretend
Not to notice when I see you
Making eyes at me from across the room
You know I'm not the one that you'll be going home with
And you can't take it
I gave you the best of my heart but you held back
(Now you hate, you hate)
I can't erase the past but I'll pretend
I gave you the best that I had but you held back
(It's too late, too late)
Yeah, yeah
It's too late, too late
I'll live and breathe for this
You hate, you hate
I'll sweat and bleed for this
In the silence I can hear you sleep
Drag the lake but you won't find me
Making promises I'll never keep
These walls are closing in around me
It's too late, too late
I gave you the best that I had but you held back
Now you hate, you hate
I can't erase the past but I'll pretend
Not to notice when I see you
Making eyes at me from across the room
You know I'm not the one that you'll be going home with
And you can't take it
It's too late, too late
I gave you the best that I had but you held back
Now you hate, you hate
I can't erase the past but I'll pretend
It's too late, too late
I gave you the best of my heart but you held back
It's too late, too late
