Alan Parsons Project, The - Too Late Lyrics






When you were standing in the
rain I gave you shelter
When I was knocking on you door
you gave me none
Well I don't make that kind of deal
with anybody
And I won't be that kind of fool
for anyone

How do you feel when the tables
have been turned?
What will you do now that the bridges
have been burned?

Cause it's
Too late now the magic's lost
Too late now the spell is broken
Too late now to count the cost
Of words that should remain
unspoken

When I need you by my side you
stand above me
And when I look into your eyes
you turn away
Well if that's the best there is
then I won't buy it
Well if that's the only game then I
won'y play

How many danger signs did you
ignore?
How many times have you heard it
all before?

Cause it's
Too late now the magic's lost
Too late now the spell is broken
Too late now to count the cost
Of words that should remain
unspoken

    c.... ....

    yeah you get that reply a lot on music forums about this album.

    c.... ....

    cosmicdrifter287: I never bothered to check out Parsons forums, but I will now. His albums are definitely worth discussion.

    c.... ....

    got this right away on cassette back in 1987.couldn"t afford the cd because at the age 14 i had a bit of a money(talks) issue.

    c.... ....

    cosmicdrifter287: Was vinyl more expensive than CD back then?
    I'm about ten years behind you, so I'm playing catch-up. Personally, I consider records to be the pinnacle of album ownership.

    c.... ....

    i come from the netherlands and cd"s still hadn"t take over from lp"s at that point in time.i remember cd"s had insane pricetags like 50 gulden (about 25 euros)in contrast with 25 gulden(10 euros)for long play vinyls.ah,those were the days(are numbers,alan parsons song pun,sorry couldn"t help it.)

  9. V.... S....

    Temaiken

  10. F.... G....

    I want to hear Bryan Ferry cover this song.

  11. M.... ....

    How could one go about getting the music tracks for this song without the vocal track?

  12. F.... C....

    Grandissima canzone. Dedicata agli ingrati!

  13. A.... B....

    maestroooo, temazoooo

  14. A.... ....

    Fantastica!!!

  15. 1.... ....

    Hey great quality! Thanks for the upload :)

  16. D.... F....

    El 9 de octubre del presente tendremos nuevamente al gran Alan Parsons, un lujo para los chilenos adeptos a la buena música.

  17. d.... ....

    This album is so incredibly rich in talent. It's a shame when Alan tours these days that he doesn't have the people that contributed so much to the "sound" of the Project.

  18. R.... M....

    I think Gaudi is one of the best album theme song from Alan parsons Project, because every single theme songs from this album have different kind of instrumental sounds, the authentic talent from Alan Parsons... this theme song with Standing on Higher Ground, the best :)

    R.... M....

    Agreed. La Sagrada, Too late, amazing album!

    R.... M....

    For me it started going downhill with Vulture Culture.

  19. J.... R....

    Great , bass line+chords changes

    J.... R....

    mainstream music nowadays can"t touch this.

  20. c.... r....

    Do it! La Sagrada Familia is jaw-dropping

  21. c.... ....

    lenny zaketek, awesome singer..should have become internationally huge...way better than the shit singers our ears are subjected to today.

  22. T.... ....

    @SillyFatten Me :Pi have another version and i want toput iton youtube but i'm still searching fpr the right lyrics^^

  23. m.... ....

    I love The Alan Parsons Project. The best band of Progresive rock for me...

    Manuel from Monterrey Mexico.

  24. T.... L....

    Viva Parsons !
    thematic albums have to take a tuck here and there to stay on topic...but his one's tucks are magnfico !
    Tom in Utica NY

  25. F.... ....

    the fourth theme is the best

  26. E.... J....

    This if one of the best

  27. k.... ....

    Once I broke up with a girl and told her to listen to this song. A couple of years ago I was able to sit with Alan Parsons in a bar in Santa Barbara. I told him my experience with this song. Very awesome to have met him and tell him .

    k.... ....

    Parsons was born in London but he resides in Santa Barbara.

    k.... ....

    One of the great "breakup songs", without doubt ... it seems to be from a (stereo)typically female perspective to me. About the lazy or complacent guy who is not paying attention to his partner until it is Too Late.

    k.... ....

    Wow that's amazing. I would just thank him for making me love not only this genre but all music in general.

  28. J.... ....

    I love this song and I love APP. I've just read Less Than Zero lately and I think it'd be a great end credits song if a movie more faithful to the book was made.

  29. M.... ....

    Lenny Zakatek's voice is amazing. Moreover, a perfectly androgynous voice. Sometimes I think Bonnie Tyler would like to sound like him.
