Now is Much Too Late

You were me, I was you, we were us

We started out with something better than love

The whole world was envy of what we shared

Cause they wanted something like what we had

But little did they know of us

That the love they saw was all from you

I was so wrapped up in the lights

Now I realize my love wasn't right

But now is much too late

I should have given all it takes

Instead I set here with my mistakes

As my heart cries out and slowly breaks

I realize I am only half of what I am

Without you I lost my way

Your love is what kept us strong

It was the place I called home

You stood in the shadows to make me great

Love you needed too, so your heart wouldn't break

I would give up the paper and the lights

For a chance to make things right

But now is much too late

I should have given all it takes

Instead I set here with my mistakes

As my heart cries out and slowly breaks

I'll give up all these things

To step in the shadows with you

Your love is bigger than and greater than

I just want you here again

Nothing can take your place

Or fill these four walls and empty space

I see I was wrong in so many ways

Now I realize I need you more today

But now is much too late

How could now be too late

When I set here with my heartache

Learning from my mistakes

I'm willing to do what it takes

So never again will your heart break

Please don't let now be too late
