Lyrics
[Intro]
Aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye
[Verse 1]
I'm holding on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearin' what you say, but I just can't make a sound (Aye, aye, aye)
You tell me that you need me, then you go and cut me down
But wait
You tell me that you're sorry, didn't think I'd turn around
And say that
[Chorus]
It's too late to apologize, it's too late (Aye, aye, aye)
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late (Aye, aye, aye)
Yeah (Aye, aye, aye)
[Verse 2]
I'd take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you
I need you like a heart needs a beat, but it's nothin' new
Yeah, yeah, I loved you with a fire red, now it's turning blue
And you say
Sorry like the angel, Heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid
[Chorus]
It's too late to apologize, it's too late (Aye, aye, aye)
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late (Aye, aye, aye)
Whoa-oh
[Bridge]
Aye, aye, aye
Aye, aye, aye
[Chorus]
It's too late to apologize, it's too late (Aye, aye, aye)
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late (Aye, aye, aye)
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah (Aye, aye, aye)
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah
[Outro]
I'm holding on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground
