Too Late
Avery Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've got this way about you
And it makes it so hard for me to be without you
Well tonight I just want to belong,
surendering to your arms

And I'm down because I know that you've moved on And I know that I'm really late in telling you all this now Give me one last chance to prove myself to you
And I'll show that my feelings are true
I know that it's too late now
I wish you cared that it's too late now
I still think you're great I'm so sorry for the wait
You're still great though I'm too late anyhow

And tonight you look so nice
I want so much to be by your side
But you've got her and I can't bear to hang around
Well I really hope she makes you proud

And I'm down because I know that you've moved on And I know that I'm really late in telling you all this now Give me one last chance to prove myself to you
And I'll show that my feelings are true

I know in my heart that you're gone
I can still rely on wishful thinking
Is it so wrong?
For you to see me as we are meant to be
And maybe I could give you this song

Well you've got this way about you
And it makes it so hard for me to be without you




Tonight I will be all yours, surrendering to your arms
Surrendering to your arms
