[00:00.0]It's Too Late (Album Version) - The Streets (街头小子)
[00:44.47]She said "Meet me at the gates at 8
[00:47.35]Leave now don't be late"
[00:49.16]She said one day she'd walk away
[00:51.03]'Cause I was always late
[00:52.78]Thought things were okay
[00:54.72]Didn't care though anyway
[00:56.51]Say "Sorry babe
[00:57.45]I had to meet a mate" temptin' fate
[01:00.14]We first met through a shared view
[01:02.07]She loved me and I did too
[01:03.89]It's now seven fifty gettin' ready better be nifty
[01:07.32]Do my hair quickly step out it's cloudy
[01:11.26]Mate bells me to borrow money
[01:12.75]I got two Henrys and a dealer to pay
[01:14.88]Call upon Geezers to rid these green trees of my reekin' jeans
[01:18.94]Got a 'You think I care' air outglarin' Geezers' stares
[01:22.45]I'm here and I'm there
[01:24.26]Couldn't see past the end of my beer
[01:26.5]What was gettin' near
[01:27.5]All the silence after the cheers
[01:30.38]I didn't know that it was over
[01:33.31]'Til it was too late too late
[01:37.770004]But if I ever needed you
[01:40.880005]Would you be there
[01:43.520004]She said "Meet me at the gates
[01:45.630005]Don't be late"
[01:46.82]But pretty soon the day came for change
[01:49.009995]And I was glad she never walked away
[01:50.880005]So I'm choosin' what to wear
[01:52.520004]Doin' my hair with an hour to spare
[01:55.07]When my life went pear
[01:56.259995]She'd been there with a thick stare
[01:58.759995]Big wheel climbed to the top
[02:00.39]Geezers stares bounced off
[02:02.51]Standin' at the top of this huge mountain
[02:04.74]Smilin' and shoutin' spring flowers sproutin'
[02:08.06]Not one inch of doubt in my mind
[02:09.87]As I reached the gates
[02:11.26]Came 'round the corner at a rate
[02:13.2]Risked her love but I'm gonna set things straight
[02:16.01]Never again am I gonna be late
[02:18.07]Never again am I gonna be late
[02:19.76]Never again am I gonna be late
[02:22.07]I didn't know that it was over
[02:25.07]'Til it was too late too late
[02:29.48]But if I ever needed you
[02:32.8]Would you be there
[02:35.24]I said "Meet me at the gates
[02:37.17]Leave now don't be late"
[02:39.8]I waited for a while listenin' to her voice mail
[02:42.3]Mind set sail
[02:44.05]Then the facts turned me pale
[02:46.05]Wind rain and hail
[02:47.55]My fears unveiled
[02:48.86]For my fair female
[02:50.86]She'd walked away
[02:52.3]Too little too late
[02:53.8]I step up the pace
[02:55.05]Walk past the gates
[02:56.11]Rain runs over my face
[02:58.24]Spirit falls from grace
[03:00.68]I purchase a hazy escape
[03:02.55]At the alcohol place in the chase
[03:05.3]Sat down I got a fat frown
[03:07.98]Weapin' and drownin'
[03:08.93]My senses
[03:10.5]For this love game's expensive
[03:12.87]I walk in a trance
[03:14.93]Got a wounded soldier stance
[03:17.18]The everyday geezers stares
[03:18.75]Throw me off balance
[03:20.67]Now nothin' holds significance
[03:22.93]And nothin' holds relevance
[03:24.92]'Cause the only thing I can see
[03:26.12]Is her elegance
[03:28.62]I didn't know that it was over
[03:31.24]'Til it was too late too late
[03:35.87]But if I ever needed you
[03:38.74]Would you be there
[03:43.05]I didn't know that it was over
[03:46.37]'Til it was too late too late
[03:50.68]But if I ever needed you
[03:54.05]Would you be there
