Too Late Lyrics & Chords By Fat And Frantic

I took an elevator up the Empire State
To take a look at New York City.
Met a girl in the lift,
Whose smile was gift,
And she said it was a pity
That we hadn't met an hour before
Which wasn't what I needed.
Then she stepped out the door
And I stared at the floor
As my fantasy receded.

And I'm always just too late to catch the moment when it comes.
Yes, I'm always at the table when the best that's left is crumbs.
Yes, I'm always just to late to catch the world when it's top.
I'm always out of the bunch,
Lonely at lunch.
Where did I go wrong?
Where did I, where did I go wrong?

I met a friend of a friend of a friend and got invited to a party.
I offered a ride, and I could have cried when the motor wouldn't start.
He said, he'd try and get a cab and I could wait for the RAC van.
Then he stepped the car; he said he'd save me a jar
But he was glad he wasn't me man.

And I'm always just too late to catch the moment when it comes.
Yes, I'm always at the table when the best that's left is crumbs.
Yes, I'm always just to late to catch the world when it's top.
I'm always out of the bunch,
Lonely at lunch.
Where did I go wrong?
Where did I go wrong?
Where did I go wrong?
Where did I go wrong?

'Cos I can't believe it's down to luck,
I can't believe it's down to fate.
I can't believe, I can't believe,
But I'm always just too late.
(Always just too late).

I decided to take a little trip to see
The girl I'd set my heart on;
I'd rehearsed the lines about a million times:
Tell her we would never part.
On arriving at her street I thought I'd timed it to perfection;
But there was nothing to say,
'Cos she was driving away
In the opposite direction.

And I'm always just too late to catch the moment when it comes.
Yes, I'm always at the table when the best that's left is crumbs.
Yes, I'm always just to late to catch the world when it's top.
I'm always out of the bunch,
Lonely at lunch.
Where did I go wrong?

Because I'm always just too late to catch the moment when it comes.
Yes, I'm always at the table when the best that's left is crumbs.
Yes, I'm always just to late to catch the world when it's top.
