Lately I've been thinking
|
And how the whole world's come undone
|
Everybody's got this sinking feeling
|
Feeling they're on the run
|
But I know a place where time stands still
|
I can picture it in my mind
|
But I'm not sure if we can get there
|
|
(There is no reason reasons rhyme
|
Why can't you see we're almost out of time)
|
|
It's too late it's too late it's too late
|
To cover what you've done
|
It's too late it's too late it's too late
|
To call for anyone at all
|
Well I guess I should be so brave to think that I'm the only one who knows
|
It's too late it's too late it's too late
|
To cover what you've done
|
|
Oh no we need a change (This world's stranger now)
|
Now is not the time to run away (There must be a way)
|
A way that we could listen to the warning signs so pay attention
|
This is my intention to prevent this fate before it gets too late
|
|
And as the hands of the clock go round and round
|
And the world keeps marching on
|
Can you afford to let it fall now?
|
|
(The fish in all the streams are dying
|
Fluorocarbons fill the sky
|
And I don't really want to die before my time has come)
|
|
It's too late it's too late it's too late
|
To cover what you've done
|
It's too late it's too late it's too late
|
To call for anyone at all
|
Well I guess I should be so brave to think that I'm the only one who knows
|
It's too late it's too late it's too late it's too late
|
Now now
|
It's too late
|
|
(Lately I've been thinking
|
Haven't had that sinking feeling now)
