Is it too late now for you and I?
Too late for us to touch the sky?
I tried to hold on for so long
I tried denying us as wrong
Is it too late now for us to fly?
Is it too late now for me and you?
I wish I knew what we could still do
I wish I knew what there is left
I want to know what weight we have to heft
Is all we have left a faded blue?
Is it too late now for you and me?
I’ve spent so long wanting us to be
This feeling of fear isn’t right
To think we missed our blessed light
To think we couldn’t look to se.
Is it too late now for us together?
After we made it through stormy weather
The rain washed it all away
The sun doesn’t shine as our brighter day
Were we dumb when we thought we were clever?
Is it too late now for us, my dear?
My heart is crippled by fear.
To think we blinked and missed
Our first (and only) chance of happiness
I wish everything would come out clear.
Is it simply too late to be?
To be an us instead of a me?
To hold you forever in my arms
Hold you safe from heaven’s harm
Is it too late now to be free?
