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 of 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

Nowhere to run

Nowhere 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

Nowhere to run

Nowhere 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

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

Around

Now, I'm under your spell

Trapped in a lie

Shouldn't have stood that close to the fire

No turning back

Nowhere to run

Nowhere 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, nowhere to escape

No more time

It's too late

It's too late

It's too late to say goodbye
