Late

[Verse 1]
Simple enough, I guess it's game over
Now I know I know I'm safe from exposure
And we'll go, we'll go along without closure
Until we meet again
Soon as the sun begin to shine I feel
Weight on my mind, my mind erupts slowly
As we float, we float in circles above me
Until you fade again

[Pre-Chorus]
To love defines the world around
Me, nowhere to run or hide
Fight the urge to let you in
I've got to learn the heart will win

[Chorus]
Why I always gotta be late
Standing right in front of the gate?
Whеn all you wanted was an OK
Now I know there's no othеr way
Why I always gotta be late?
Missing you and ain't it a shame
I found the words I never could say
Now I know there's no other way

[Verse 2]
I know you're gonna say that I'm broken
I know you''ll play the cards that you're holding
Then we'll go to blows till very word's spoken
And we're back at that start
I'd rather hear your thoughts, your fears truly
I'd rather open so you se through me
But fighting for love would only undo me
And tear you apart

[Pre-Chorus]
To love defines the world around
Me, nowhere to run or hide
Fight the urge to let you in
I've got to learn the heart will win

[Chorus]
Why I always gotta be late
Standing right in front of the gate?
When all you wanted was an OK
Now I know there's no other way
Why I always gotta be late?
Missing you and ain't it a shame
I found the words I never could say
Now I know there's no other way

[Bridge]
I waited for the wind to blow to say my piece tonight
And I justified your actions in the course of this cold life
Just to see you face to face, this won't be the one to make it right
We know that it's too late, let this be the last we say goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
To love defines the world around
Me, nowhere to run or hide
Fight the urge to let you in
I've got to learn the heart will win

[Chorus]
Why I always gotta be late
Standing right in front of the gate?
When all you wanted was an OK
Now I know there's no other way
Why I always gotta be late?
Missing you and ain't it a shame
I found the words I never could say
Now I know there's no other way
