Too late for tears

c. 1997 mojine

you're slipping away
there's a strange lack of friction

what do we care anyway

if all of romance is just fiction

a little bit deeper each day

I get a sinking sensation

whatever I try to say...

something gets lost in translation

 
 

 

chorus
so please stand by... try not to cry

at least so no one hears

that heartbreak sigh... we both know why

and now that time is near...

it's too late for tears
we used to burn like the stars
love was the jewel in the lotus

now we just carry the scars

of being too busy to notice

the blaze was so blinding at first

it must have just gone supernova

i hate to see our bubble burst

just wake me up when it's over...

repeat chorus


 
 
 
 

 

something that somebody said
started me thinking about it

maybe it's all in my head

I'm not sure I can live without it
chorus
so please stand by... try not to cry

at least so no one hears

that heartbreak sigh... we both know why

and now that time is near...

it's too late for tears
