Too Late to Realize

You'll keep moving on thinking you're right That I was just a chapter in your life You'll bury the good with the hurt we shared Convincing yourself that I never cared But time has a way of changing the view Of showing the things you thought you knew One day you'll look back through tears in your eyes But by then I'll be gone and you'll realize... One day you'll realize I wasn't all bad But it'll be too late to get back what we had You'll remember the nights I stood by your side When the world was too heavy I swallowed my pride But the moments will fade like the love that we lost And you'll see the truth at a bitter cost One day you'll know but it'll be too late To fix what was broken to rewrite our fate You'll find yourself in someone else's arms But something will always feel wrong You'll look for the fire we had at the start But no one will love you the way that I loved with my heart And when you're alone replaying the past You'll see that my love was meant to last But the time for regrets will have come and gone And by then I'll be long long gone One day you'll realize I wasn't all bad But it'll be too late to get back what we had You'll remember the nights I stood by your side When the world was too heavy I swallowed my pride But the moments will fade like the love that we lost And you'll see the truth at a bitter cost One day you'll know but it'll be too late To fix what was broken to rewrite our fate You'll try to call but I won't be there I'll be out of reach beyond repair The silence will haunt you the emptiness cold And you'll wish you had known before it grew old One day you'll realize but I'll have moved on By the time you look back I'll already be gone Too late to see too late to feel That I wasn't all bad and our love was real One day you'll know but it'll be too late... Too late to turn back too late to change fate
