Too Late For Lullabies

James Morrison

Intro: It's a sad song that has no end It's a bleeding heart that never mends A minor miracle we can still pretend After so long Did the apple fall too far from the tree? Did we get lost in the space in-between? But the roots that we buried so deep Will always be strong Too late for lullabies Too soon for it alright Love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes are moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I'll give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall Ooo yeah Love burns when it's in the blood And God knows I burnt you the best I could How can three words be so misunderstood? We got it so wrong Yeah the greatest gift that you ever gave to me You don't know your strength 'till you've faced defeat So when everything's just out of reach Keep holding on Too late for lullabies Too soon for it alright Love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes are moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I'll give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall We built a brick wall but it's all for nothing Only bridges will cross this divide We both know this road leads to nowhere There is nothing left for you to hide Too late for lullabies Too soon for it alright Love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes are moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I'll give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall Ooo yeah Too late for lullabies Too soon for it alright Love takes its toll sometimes Let's start a clean slate, mistakes are moments in time For every time you ever raised up your hand I'll give you mine to show you I understand You taught me to fly by learning to fall
