Three Words Too Late | Rose Pilgrim Music

Sometimes three words can change everything. But sometimes, they arrive too late. “Three Words Too Late” is a heartfelt song about love, timing, memories, and the words we wish we had said before the moment was gone. 🎵 Three Words Too Late 🌹 Rose Pilgrim Music 🎧 Songs For The Journey Listen · Feel · Keep Walking LYRICS — “THREE WORDS TOO LATE” [Verse 1] I still take the long way home Past the street where we used to go There's a little café on the corner Where you said you'd never leave me alone I remember your coffee order Two sugars, no ice, every time Funny how I forgot the ending But I still remember every line [Pre-Chorus] You were standing at the doorway Waiting for me to say something I smiled and said, “Take care” Like it didn't mean a thing [Chorus] I love you, three words too late You said goodbye, I said, “Okay” Funny how my heart found the words When you were already walking away I love you, but you couldn't wait I wish I'd known before that day Now you're somewhere I can't reach And I'm three words too late [Verse 2] I deleted all our pictures But I kept one by mistake It's you laughing in the kitchen On a rainy Sunday afternoon in May I heard our song last Friday I almost called your name Then I remembered we're strangers And nothing would ever be the same [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I was scared of falling Maybe you were scared I'd stay We were both waiting for a moment And somehow let it slip away [Chorus] I love you, three words too late You said goodbye, I said, “Okay” Funny how my heart found the words When you were already walking away I love you, but you couldn't wait I wish I'd known before that day Now you're somewhere I can't reach And I'm three words too late [Bridge] If I could go back To that night at your door I'd forget being proud I'd forget being scared I'd pull you closer And tell you the truth But time doesn't listen And I can't undo [Final Chorus] I love you, three words too late You said goodbye, I said, “Okay” Funny how my heart found the words When you were already walking away I love you, I should've said Before you turned and left that day Now all I have is these three words And nowhere left to say them [Outro] I love you...
