Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Born too late for you to notice me
To you, I'm just a kid that you won't date
Why was I born too late?
[Verse 2]
Born too late to have a chance to win your love
Oh, why, oh, why was it my fate
To be born too late?
[Verse 3]
I see you walk with another
I wish it could be me
I long to hold you and kiss you
But I know it never can be
[Chorus]
For I was born too late for you to care
Now my heart cries
Because your heart just couldn't wait
Why was I born too late?
[Chorus]
Born too late for you to care
Now my heart cries
Because your heart just couldn't wait
Why was I born too late?
[Outro]
Why was I born too late?
Too late
