Lyrics
you've always played the ghost
got too close to the fire
burned right down to the soul
wild desire
wings undiscovered
hid under the covers
a secret too shy to expose
there's no other lover
who's kisses threaten
to melt me right down to the core
I'd've given my all
that night swallowed me whole
could've sworn I'd die fallin
out of control
now you're dipping your toe
in this watering hole
to see if love for you
has survived
bet you're not surprised
by the spark you ignite
that says this true love never dies
it may be a little too little
just a little too late
you played my heart like a fiddle
stole my kisses and ran away
took so long to discover
played the fool
I'll never love another lover like you
who gives a little too little
just a little too soon
givin a little too little oh
leaves so little to lose
finally healed
From the cold in that moonlit shadow
found my self
in those dark silent nights
and did you hear me calling your name
when dreams left me breathless
cuz boy I'll admit
I'm surprised I survived
but I survived
it may be a little too little (ooh ooh)
just a little too late
you played my heart like a fiddle (ooh ooh)
kissin and running away
took too long to recover
playing your fool
I'll never love another lover like you
who gives a little too little
A little too soon
givin a little too little
leaves too little to lose
a little too little
(Leaves so little to lose)
but a Little too late
and you're left with the blues
