THE LYRICS.

READ THE FULL LYRICS

VERSE 1

I still keep the last message you sent me

Never deleted it, never read it again

I drive the long way home just to avoid our street

‘Cause every corner reminds me of what used to be

I laugh when they ask if I’m seeing someone new

I say I’m fine, but the truth is I’m not even close to you

I built a wall so high no one can climb

But I’m the one stuck on the other side

PRE-CHORUS

I should’ve said it back then

CHORUS

Now it’s too late, too late

The words are stuck inside my chest

Too late, too late

I’m paying for the silence that I kept

I should’ve told you I was scared

Should’ve told you I was lost

Now it’s too late, too late

And I’m carrying the cost

POST-CHORUS

Too late… too late…

VERSE 2

I see your name sometimes on someone else’s page

And it hits me like a wave I can’t escape

You look happy, you look free

While I’m still stuck here with the man I used to be

I wish I could call you, hear your voice again

Tell you all the things I held inside back then

But life moved on, and so did you

Now I’m left with all these things I didn’t do

PRE-CHORUS

I should’ve said it back then

CHORUS

Now it’s too late, too late

The words are stuck inside my chest

Too late, too late

I’m paying for the silence that I kept

I should’ve told you I was scared

Should’ve told you I was lost

Now it’s too late, too late

And I’m carrying the cost

BREAKDOWN

I should’ve said it…

I should’ve said it…

QUIET BRIDGE

If you ever hear this

I hope you understand

I was scared of losing you

So I lost you with my hands

FINAL CHORUS

Now it’s too late, too late

The words I never said still echo in my head

Too late, too late

I’d give anything to go back and say them instead

I should’ve told you I was scared

Should’ve told you you were home

Now it’s too late… but I still love you

Even if I’m here alone
