TOO LATE
(G. Stefani, T. Dumont, T. Kanal)

I just want to take you
Away from everyone
And keep you stashed
Under my pillow
And when I take you out
Simply for my own pleasure
And will you when the occasion's special
I put you on like a diamond so I can sparkle
And be the envy of my friends
I'd proudly hold the leash that I'd have you on
So you can't stray and follow me around all day

It's too late now
I don't think it can fade
It's too real now
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

Compulsion has stained me
I'm nervously cradling our young love
Without known limits, love
Like a butterfly cupped in my hands
I peek in to see beauty trapped
Confined it flutters
Then it leaves be hehind colorful dust
To remind me of the special times we've spent
But of course it has to leave my clutch
But enough's never enought to make a dent

It's too late now
I don't think it can fade
It's too real now
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

And in time it will end
And there really isn't hope for the two of us
But right now I give in...

It's too late now
I don't think it can fade
It's too real now
Fulfillment just adds fuel to the blaze

It's too late, too late
