Too Late

by Me
7/9/10

im dying to tell you
how much i really love you
i didnt realize it before
it became too late

and now youre gone
wont be back for years
things had ended badly between us
but time had run out to fix it

the memories still haunt me
but theres no one to tell how it feels
no one would understand
maybe not even you

the years will pass
and i'll try to find someone new
but there's no way i can forget
when you're always on my mind

we had started out as friends
then something changed when we kissed
and we would never be the same again
because what we had was real

we knew each other so well
we were best friends for so long
there are so many thing i wish i could change now
so many things that i would have done different

i still remember our first kiss
who would have thought
after a kiss like that
we would end up like this

if i could have had more time
then we would be inseparable again
but you had someone new
so i tried to find my own

the search didnt last long
it was all a mistake to leave you
if i could go back
i wouldnt have given up so easily

then things changed again
the distance tore us apart
and there was nothing i could do or say
to change your mind

i messed us up
and yet you say you still love me
then who is this other girl?
what do you expect from me?

you still had to go
and all i can do is wait
for someone just like you to come along
and realize that it was always you i was waiting for

your letters drive me crazy
i tell myself not to write back
but i end up doing it anyway
because i'm not ready to give up

a lot will change while you're gone
my dreams and wishes now seem so far away
so i run from this fantasy
hoping that reality isn't far off

i thought i got over you
but the memories are unforgettable
so i pulled out a notebook
and these words came

i'm dying to tell you
how much i really love you
i didnt realize it until now
and now it's too late
