I trembled in your presence 
I was lost the very minute 
That you came my way 
There was no escape 

I pictured us together 
But you told me you weren't ready 
Said it's much too soon 
That's a year ago 

You asked me to be patient 
So I told myself that I could wait 
And time went by 
Somehow it's different now 

So if you start to make regrets 
It's a little late 

All that you've been wishing for 
Was right in your hands 
But you covered your eyes 
When you could have seen through its disguise 
You didn't realize 
All that you've been wishing for 
Was not out of reach 
You discovered as I walked away 
You complained 
But it won't bring me back 
Can't you see that 
It's a little late 


Everything's the opposite 
of what it used to be 
I guess and now you know 
what I was going through 

You are counting days apart 
But can't find one way to win back 
My heart but babe 
What is it they say 

Good things come to those who wait 
Not if you only hesitate 
Like you in doubt 
So your time ran out 


So if you start to make regrets 
It's a little late 

All that you've been wishing for 
Was right in your hands 
But you covered your eyes 
When you could have seen through its disguise 
You didn't realize 
All that you've been wishing for 
Was not out of reach 
You discovered as I walked away 
You complained 
But it won't bring me back 
Can't you see that 
It's a little late 

It's a little late 
You had it all 
It was right in your hands 
Maybe you by now start to regret mistakes 
It is much too late
