She said meet me at the gates at 8 Leave now don't be late She said one day she'd walk away 'cos I was always late Thought things were ok Didn't care though anyway Say "Sorry babe I had to meet a mate" - tempting fate We first met through a shared view She loved me and I did too It's now 7:50, getting ready, better be nifty Doing my hair quickly Step out - it's cloudy Mate bells me to borrow money I've got two henries and a dealer to pay Call up on geezers to rid these green trees in my reaking jeans Got a "you think I care?" air out-glaring geezer stares I'm here and I'm there Couldn't see past the end of my beer.. What was getting near or the silence after the cheers Didn't know that it was over Till it was too late (too late) But if I ever needed you Would you be there? She said meet me at the gates Don't be late But pretty soon the day came for change and I was glad she never walked away So I'm choosing what to wear Doing my hair with an hour to spare When my life went pear she'd been there with a fixed stare Big wheel climbs to the top Geezers' stares bounced off Standing at the top of this huge mountain Smiling and shouting Spring flowers sprouting Not one inch of doubt in my mind as i reach the gates Came round the corner at a rate Risked her love but I was gonna set things straight Never again am I gonna be late x3 Didn't know that it was over Till it was too late (too late) But if I ever needed you Would you be there? I said meet me at the gates Leave now don't be late I waited for a while listening to her voicemail Mind set sail Then the facts turned me pale Wind, rain and hail My fears unveiled for my fair female She'd walked away Too little too late I step up the pace, walk past the gates rain runs over my face Spirit falls from grace I purchase a hazy escape at the alcohol place in the chase Sat down, got a fat frown Weeping and drowning my senses For this love game's expensive Walk in a trance Got a wounded soldier stance And everyday geezer stares throw me off balance Now nothing holds significance, and nothing holds relevance Cos the only thing I can see is her elegance Didn't know that it was over Till it was too late (too late) But if I ever needed you Would you be there? Didn't know that it was over Till it was too late (too late) But if I ever needed you Would you be there?
