Little Too Late

I hear you had a good offer down on Third Avenue
You tell me that was the reason
For whatcha’ put me through, Yeah

And now you come collapsin’ back
I feel the heat of your attack
Want me to take you back
I’m givin’ you the sack
So don’t waste your time

Chorus:

It’s a Little Too Little
It’s a Little Too Late
I’m a Little Too Hurt
And there’s nothin’ left that I’ve gotta say
You can cry to me baby
But there’s only so much I can take
Ah, it’s a Little Too Little
It’s a Little Too Late

You say you had a good time
But did ya’ think it was for free – yeah
And how much did it get ya’, all their flattery
And now you come back, runnin’ for protection
You’ve been bitten by love and stung by rejection
You can’t connect
What did you expect?
I’m still gettin’ over you

(Repeat Chorus Four Times)

  • Pat: That was Alex Call. I just liked the song. Some outside songs we rip to pieces. That song is not far from what he originally wrote.
