Lyrics Too Late to Say Goodbye - Flies on the Square Egg

Too Late to Say Goodbye

Oh my precious ember burning, my sweet glowing light
From the moment I first saw you I was yours and you were mine
Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design
And the echo of my mother’s words, «baby don’t you play with fire.»
I was always playing the part: first love only set by a spark
There was no way changing my mind
Now I’m under your spell, trapped in a lie
Shouldn’t have stood that close to the fire
No turning back, no where to run
No where to hide, it’s too late to say goodbye
Push back from my heart, wish we could go back to the start,
But oh my God is this real?
No more time
It’s too late, It’s too late to say goodbye
I can hear the sounds of sirens circling around
Forced to watch the ashes floating, softly drifting to the ground
Deep down we both knew it was trouble by design
And the echo of my mother’s words, «baby don’t you play with fire.»
I was always playing the part: first love only set by a spark
There was no way changing my mind
Now I’m under your spell, trapped in a lie
Shouldn’t have stood that close to the fire
No turning back, no where to run
No where to hide, it’s too late to say goodbye
Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start
But oh my God is this real?
No more time
It’s too late, It’s too late, it’s too late to say goodbye
After all the dust has settled, we can settle down
Just the two of us forever, no one else around
No one else around aroooound
Now I’m under your spell, trapped in a lie
Shouldn’t have stood that close to the fire
No turning back, no where to run
No where to hide;
it’s too late to say goodbye
Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start
But oh my God, no escape, no more time
It’s too late, it’s too late, it’s too late to say goodbye
