[Intro]
Mmmmmm
[Verse 1]
Maybe I gave too much
But you made me feel like everything I did was never enough
I'm gonna let my heart be over-ruled
There's nothing more to me and you
While you've been so preoccupied
I've had time to realise that I can do a little better than you
[Bridge]
If I'd known better then I never would've let it begin
But imperfection is hard to see, from the outside lookin' in
I need the things that you denied me
I need someone to inspire me
Someone I can hold on to
[Chorus]
It's too late
That somebody just ain't you
It's too late
I can do without you
Tell me that you want me to stay
I could make believe that you mean what you say
Well it doesn't feel that way
[Verse 2]
I thought that I could change who you are
I over esitmated myself I didn't get me very far
But love is only what you make it
You're not ready to embrace it
And what are you waitin' for?
[Chorus]
It's too late
That somebody just ain't you
It's too late
I can do without you
Tell me that you want me to stay
I could make believe that you mean what you say
Well it doesn't feel that way
Well it's much too late for change
[Middle 8]
Oooh...
Well I tried brakin' you down
You just weren't comin' around
It's too late to try and work it out
[Chorus]
It's too late
That somebody just ain't you
It's too late
I can do without you
Tell me that you want me to stay
I could make believe that you mean what you say
[Chorus]
It's too late
That somebody just ain't you
It's too late
I can do without you
Tell me that you want me to stay
I could make believe that you mean what you say
Well it doesn't feel that way
[Outro]
Well it doesn't feel that way
No, it doesn't feel that way...
