Too Late Songtext

Too Late
(Sonja Peschel / October 2001 / © Pesobeco Musikverlag )

1. Too late, too late, I’m late again, I am too late!
Too late, there’s fighting and death and war.
Too late, September passed, September’s gone,
Too late for what I’ve been waiting for?

I should have worked harder, gone on writing my songs
E’ry night, maybe war had avoided my door?
I should have worked harder, gone on writing my songs
Ev’ry night, maybe war had avoided my door?

2. Too slow, too slow, I’m slow again, I am too slow!
Too slow, death is too strong, to strong for me.
Too slow, I close my eyes, what can I see?
Too slow, December, my father left me.

He gave me so much, but I must confess
What I could give back was less, much less.
I fought against death, but my fight was in vain
And now I can’t bear such a loss again.

3. Too weak, too weak, I’m weak again, I am too weak!
Too weak, I tried to prevent this war.
Too weak, I only dream of a peaceful life
Too weak, what I want is more, much more.

I am not perfect, but want to be strong,
And now I am singing, sing with me my songs.
I’m only a woman, I am not a star,
I only tell you: Stop this war!
