Too Late

Words & music by Rich Wyman

Is it a lie to think of a sin
Or only a thought that gets under your skin
And once it is planted it starts to grow
I had an idea of what we could do
And no one need know except me and you
What you do in the dark stays there forever
So many years I’ve been wearing these chains
Am I growing tired or am I just

Chorus
Too late to fix what has been broken
And it’s too late now
‘Cause it’s too late to close the door we’ve opened
And it’s too late now

A lie and a secret they’re like a twin
One spit out and one you keep in
But you take them with you wherever you go
A little white lie turns into a mess
Who will you turn to, to hear you confess
How many times can you say you’re sorry
For so many years you’ve been wearing this skin
You can’t take it off and you can’t keep it in 

Chorus
Too late to fix what has been broken
And it’s too late now
‘Cause it’s too late to close the door we’ve opened
And it’s too late now

Bridge
I lied to you
It’s not what I tried to do
‘cause I lied to you 
And it’s over now

Chorus
Too late to fix what has been broken
And it’s too late now
‘Cause it’s too late to close the door we’ve opened
And it’s too late now

Is it a lie to think of a sin
Or only a thought that gets under your skin
And once it is planted it starts to grow
