Too Late for Prayin' - Gordon Lightfoot

I see that nothing's changed, insist on playing games Some waste of time you are and you're so popular Well this is it you bitch, I've got to make a switch You'll find some other John, I know what's going on Your move What do I have to lose? Stalemate Oh, too late, too late I thought you were for real, just one more rip-off deal Don't give me all that crap, I just escaped your trap You think you see the joke but you're just chasing smoke 'Cause now the thrill is gone, I know what's going on Your move What do I have to lose? Stalemate Oh, too late, too late, oh Misunderstanding me, the way you felt so free I'm gonna jump the gun, I'm gonna cut and run Your credibility don't cut no ice with me You're just a feeble con, I know what's going on Your move What do I have to lose? Stalemate Oh, oh, oh, too late, too late Oh, too late, too late

(Too late for us) (We both dangerous) (Moving so close, we combust) (Is it bad that I want more?) I been gone so long, I don't know where I'm going You be on my phone, talking 'bout what's my problem? I done go alone and get it how I want it Had to be alone to out figure how I should be loved And if it's just us, is that enough? Is it bad that I want more? Is it too late for us? We both dangerous Moving so close, we combust Is it bad that I want more? Is it too late for us? We both scared to love Moving so close, we combust Is it bad that I want more? See, bust it like a toolie in your waistband Bust it like that booty too big and you need two hands Bust it like you catchin' a body and you in G-stance Bust it like it's casual Friday and you hеar two things Call bluff, I know what's up, can't get enough Is it bad that I want more? Is it too latе for us? We both dangerous Moving so close, we combust Is it bad that I want more? Is it too late for us? We both scared to love Moving so close, we combust Is it bad that I want more? Mmm, pressure, I won't learn my lesson I want you to stretch it, limit, want you to test it I know I was born to roll I gotta know Is it bad that I want more? Is it too late for us? We both dangerous Moving so close, we combust Is it bad that I want more? Is it too late for us? We both scared to love Moving so close, we combust Is it bad that I want more? Showdown with you Nobody hear me like you do Every time you break my heart, it feel new Every time I fall apart, I call you I just wanna be loved, loving sucks I can't enough, is it bad that I want more? Is it too late for us?

Hoping I can run today and get away faster Than ever from here Another night and who can say if leaving is better Than living in fear Here's to all the broken hearts tonight Here's to all the "fall-a-parts" tonight Here's to every girl and boy who lost their joy They let it get away You know it's never too late Get up and start all over again You know it's never too late There's got to be a better way Don't settle for the cold and rain It's not too late to start again To find a way to smile and never let it get away It's been too long and we've been down and out without laughter No smiling just tears We're tired of falling down and being such a disaster We've been here for years Here's to all the broken hearts tonight Here's to all the "fall-a-parts" tonight Here's to every girl and boy who lost their joy They let it get away You know it's never too late Get up and start all over again You know it's never too late There's got to be a better way Don't settle for the cold and rain It's not too late to start again To find a way to smile and never let it get away I'm gone, I'm gone There's got to be a better way, I'm gone I'm gone, I'm gone There's got to be a better way, I'm gone I'm gone, I'm gone There's got to be a better way, I'm gone I'm gone, I'm gone There's got to be a better way, I'm gone You know it's never too late (I'm gone, I'm gone) You know it's never too late (There's got to be a better way, I'm gone) You know it's never too late (I'm gone, I'm gone) You know it's never too late (There's got to be a better way, I'm gone) You know it's never too late (I'm gone, I'm gone) Get up and start over again (There's got to be a better way, I'm gone) You know it's never too late (I'm gone, I'm gone) You know it's never too late (There's got to be a better way, I'm gone)

There's something I gotta say, baby, it ain't gonna be easy There's nothing about it that won't bring a tear to my eye Everything that we been through you got to believe me And it's time for us to realize It's too late and I hate to see you go I'll always remember that you were the woman saved me You'll never hear about me disrespecting your name I'll never forget all the passion and loving you gave me And I'm hoping that you feel the same It's too late and I hate to see you go It's too late but you'll stay with me when I go La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la Maybe the next time I see you I know you'll be happy You're gonna have a new love, he'll be holding your hand Maybe that could be the reason that all of this happened And I hope it never happens again It's too late and I hate to see you go It's too late but you'll stay with me when I go It's too late and I hate to see you go It's too late and you'll stay with me when I go

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
