BEN FOLDS lyrics : "Late"

Under some dirty words on a dirty wall
Eating takeout by myself
I played the shows

Got back in the van and put the Walkman on
And you were playing


In some other dive a thousand miles away
I played a thousand times before
And like pathetic stars, the truck stops and the rock club walls

I always knew
You saw them too
But you never will again


It's too late
Don't you know

It's been too late
For a long time


Elliott, man, you played a fine guitar
And some dirty basketball
The songs you wrote

Got me through a lot
Just wanna tell you that


But it's too late
It's too late
No, don't you know

it's been too late
for a long time


Oh no
Things were looking up
Least that's what I heard

Oh no
Someone came and washed away your hard-earned
Peace of mind


When desperate static beats the silence up
A quiet truth to calm you down

The songs you wrote
Got me through a lot
Just wanna tell you that


But it's too late
It's too late

No, don't you know
It's been too late
For a long time

It's too late
It's too late
No, don't you know

It's been too late
For a long time
