Eva Cassidy - When It's Too Late lyrics

(David Christopher)

Mother looks into your room

All your favorite things

Never moving

Recall a night

You went out to have some fun

Racing down the road

Never returning

Tragedy can stop the beating heart

Society stops a life before it starts

Brother playing in the yard

Too young to understand

Never forgiving

He waits patiently

Through the slowly ending days

For the guiding hand

That's never returning

Foolishness disguised as having fun

Promises destroyed

When the night is done

When it's too late

To mend your broken heart

When it's too late

For a love that you can share

When it's too late

To show how much you need them

When it's too late

To show how much you care

Memories can't mend a broken heart

A human life so badly torn apart

Badly torn apart

Foolishness disguised as having fun

Promises destroyed

When the night is done

When it's too late
