Too Late To Say Goodbye
Cage the Elephant Song Lyrics

Oh my precious ember burning my sweet glowing light

From the moment I first saw you I was yours and you were mine

Deep down we both knew you were trouble by design

And the echo of my mother's words, 'baby don't you play with fire'

I was always playing the part first love only set by a spark

There was no way changing my mind.

Now I'm under your spell, trapped in the light, shouldn't have stood that close to the fire,

No turning back, no where to run, no where to hide, it's too late to say goodbye

Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start but oh my god is this real no more time

It's too late, it's too late to say goodbye.

I can hear the sounds of sirens circling around

Forced to watch the ashes floating softly drifting to the ground

Deep down we both knew it was trouble by design

And the echo of my mother's words, 'baby don't you play with fire'

I was always playing the part first love only set by a spark

There was no way changing my mind.

Now I'm under your spell, trapped in a lie, shouldn't have stood that close to the fire,

No turning back, no where to run, no where to hide, it's too late to say goodbye

Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start but oh my god is this real no more time

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late to say goodbye.

After all the dust has settled we can settle down

Just the two of us forever no one else around

No one else around (around)

Now I'm under your spell, trapped in a lie, shouldn't have stood that close to the fire,

No turning back, no where to run, no where to hide, it's too late to say goodbye

Push back from my heart, wish we go back to the start but oh my god no escape no more time

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late to say goodbye.
