Too Late

I'd just want to take you away from everyone and keep you stashed under my pillow

and then I'd take you out simply for my own pleasure

and wear you when the occasion's special

then I'd put you on like a diamond

So I can sparkle and be the envy of my friends

I'd proudly hold the leash that I'd have you on

So you can stray and follow me around all day

It's too late now

I don't think it can fade

It's too real now

Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

Compulsion has stained me

Nervously cradling our young love

Without known limits, love

Like a butterfly cupped in my hands

I begin to see beauty trap

Confined it flutters then

It leaves behind colorful dust

To remind me of the special times we've spent

But of course it has to leave my clutch

But enough's never enough to make a dent

It's too late now

I don't think it can fade

It's too real now

Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

Too late, too late

And in time it will end

When there really isn't room for the two of us

But right now I give in

It's too late now

I don't think it can fade

It's too real now

Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

Fulfillment just adds fuel to the full

Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze
