It's A Little Too Late

Well, early this morning it dawned on me

The kind of man she needed me to be

She made a list and laid it there beside me on the bed

Now what I should'a done keep's runnin' through my headOh, I should'a done this and I should'a done that

I should'a been there, then she'd a never left

I should'a been hangin' on every word she ever had to say

It's a little too late, she's a little too gone

She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong

Now would be the time to change but it's a little too lateLast night I came home at a quarter till three

And to my surprise she wasn't mad at me

I thought she finally realized not to worry I'd be home

Then I realized this mornin' she was goneOh, I should'a done this and I should'a done that

I should'a been there, then she'd a never left

I should'a been hangin' on every word she ever had to say

But it's a little too late, she's a little too gone

She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong

Now would be the time to change but it's a little too late
