Ben Folds - Late lyrics
[Ben Folds - Late lyrics]
Eating takeout by myself i played the show
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 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
Oh, but it's too late
It's too late don't you know?
It's been too late for a long time
