[Lyric] Lifetime Too Late (Peter Himmelman)

[Verse 1]
It's a quarter past midnight, I'm drowning in the moonlight
The telephone rings, and it all disappears
I pick up the receiver, and though I'm a believer
My ears cannot accept what I'm about to hear
It's you, and you're telling me I got it all wrong
You're trying to explain that you and I belong
Together and you know that I want it to
I'm thinking to myself, this girl's come unglued
Baby, you have faded so far from my mind
There's not a reason in this world to be kissing my behind

[Chorus]
It's been a lifetime too late to say you're sorry
A lifetime too late to say you'rе sorry
A lifetime too late to say you'rе sorry to me

[Verse 2]
Well, now you know I ain't the one who handed down your sentence
Though I admit that I subscribe to repentance
Well, there ain't no use in trying at least that is with me
You might have tricked me once, but now it's plain to see
All your little moves so clever and rehearsed
They don't mean a damn thing now that the bubble has burst
[Chorus]
It's been a lifetime too late to say you're sorry
A lifetime too late to say you're sorry
A lifetime too late to say you're sorry to me

[Bridge]
I'm gonna hang up the phone, I can't stand to hear you cry
Well, you say you're so alone, well, don't you even try

[Verse 3]
Well, they say that vindication is as rare as it is sweet
This kind of justice makes the circle so complete
And I want to tell you one thing before I go
You are the biggest loser that this world will ever know
And I've made a recording of this entire talk
Now I'm goin back to bed, and you can take a walk

[Chorus]
It's been a lifetime too late to say you're sorry
A lifetime too late to say you're sorry
A lifetime too late to say you're sorry to me
