"Too Late To Say Goodbye" lyrics
"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 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 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

The White Stripes - "The Hardest Button To Button" We started living in an old house
My ma gave birth and we were checking it out
It was a baby boy, so we bought him a toy
It was a ray gun, and it was 1981
We named him 'Baby', he had a toothache

The Black Keys - "Howlin' For You" I must admit
I can't explain
Any of these thoughts racing
Through my brain
It's true
Baby I'm howlin' for you
There's something wrong
With this plot
The actors here
Have not got
A clue

Tame Impala - "New Person, Same Old Mistakes" I can just hear them now
"How could you let us down?"
But they don't know what I found
Or see it from this way around
Feeling it overtake
All that I used to hate
Wonder what if we trade
I tried but...

Taste of mezcal on my breath

Royal Blood - "Lights Out" Every time I'm with it alone
It picks me up
You just send me down
I can feel it rushing under my skin
You're a cage won't you let me in?
On my toes
Lock the door
Pretty face
Through the walls
