Too Late

When I first met you
I knew your eyes would haunt my dreams
As the fire danced in them
Amber sparks within tawny seas

But now it's too late by a year
Because I gave in to fear

That night that I held you
Under the stars, by the firelight.
I wish I had kissed you
And we'd gone off into the night.

And now I'm too late by years
All because I gave in to fear.

By the light of the full moon
We danced, and you sang to me.
Your smile took my breath away
That smile that I so long to see.

But I know, I'm too late by years and years
I only wish I'd been here.

It took so long to realize ohh
For my heart to analyze ohh
Time after time I tried to fight it
But my heart knew what it wanted.
It wanted.
You!

Why was I afraid of this?
Why didn't I risk that kiss?
Denied my own primal fire
And repressed my desire.

Perhaps we'll meet under the stars
And I'll get lost in your eyes.
I'll whisper “I love you”
You'll say “I kind of like you, too”

And I hope I can conquer fear
I hope, that you'll draw me near
I hope I haven't wasted the years
I hope that we'll still meet here.

It took so long to realize ohh
For my heart to analyze ohh
Time after time I tried to fight it
But my heart knew what it wanted.

It took so long to realize ohh
For my heart to analyze ohh
Time after time I tried to fight it
But my heart knew what it wanted.

You.
