I Waited Too Long
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I waited too long, and now we're apart.
I never told you what I feel in my heart.
Somebody new has come along,
I was a fool for waiting too long.
My life without you won't be the same,
I should have never played that waiting game.
I'm so alone now that you're gone,
I was a fool for waiting too long.
I wasn't smart, I wasn't wise,
and now I'm by myself with tears in my eyes.
I made my life a life of regret,
I should have never played hard to get.
And now I know, I was so wrong,
I was a fool for waiting too long.
I was a fool for waiting too long,
Too long.
