Lyrics
When you feel like there is nothing else
And all your life has passed you by
It's too late to start again
When you regret the things you've never done
And wish for one more chance
It's too late to start again
And sometimes in the dead of night
You can almost hear them laughing
But as you fight to keep memories alive
They fade away again
Do you remember how we used to be?
Unafraid of the storms
And even though we couldn't see
We thought we knew the way
But then the world just turned so cold
When we finally learned the truth
Now you couldn't recognise your friends
You barely know yourself
And it's too late now to start again
No going back from here
It's too late now to turn around
It's too late
Can you see the end from where we stand?
