She said, "Meet me at the at 8 now, don't be late" She said one day walk away 'Cause I was late
Thought things were Didn't though anyway Say, "Sorry I had to meet a mate", fate
We first met a shared view She me and I did too It's now seven fifty, gettin' ready, better be Do my hair quickly, out, it's cloudy
Mate me to borrow money I got two Henrys and a to pay Call upon to rid these green trees of my reekin' jeans Got a 'You think I air, outglarin' Geezers' stares
I'm and I'm there Couldn't see past the end of my What was near? All the after the cheers
I didn't that it was over 'Til it was too late, too But if I ever you you be there?
She said, "Meet me at the be late" But pretty soon the day came for And I was glad she never walked

Rain runs over my Spirit from grace I purchase a hazy At the alcohol place in the
Sat down, I got a fat Weapin' and My For this love expensive
I in a trance Got a wounded soldier The everyday geezers me off balance
Now nothin' holds And nothin' holds the only thing I can see Is her
I didn't that it was over it was too late, too late But if I ever you you be there?
I didn't know that it was 'Til it was too late, too But if I needed you you be there?
