(bkz: too late)

6.25 süren bu queen başyaptının sözleri ;

(Scene 1)
You say you love me
And I hardly know your name
And if I say I love you in the candle light
There's no-one but myself to blame
But there's something inside
That's turning my mind away
Woh - how I could love you
If I could let you stay

It's late - and I'm bleeding deep inside
It's late - ooh, is it just my sickly pride ?
Too late - even now the feeling seems to steal away
So late - though I'm crying I can't help but hear you say
It's late - It's late - It's late
But not too late

(Scene 2)
Mmm, yeah
The way you love me
Is the sweetest love around
But after all this time
The more I'm trying
The more I seem to let you down, yes
Now you tell me you're leaving
And I just can't believe it's true
Oh, you know that I can love you
Though I know I can't be true
Oh, you made me love you
Don't tell me that we're through

It's late - mmm, and it's driving me so mad
It's late - yes I know, but don't try and tell me that it's
Too late - save our love you can't turn out the light
So late - I've been wrong but I'll learn to be right
It's late - It's late - It's late
But not too late

- mmm, I've been so long
- You've been so long
- We've been so long tryin' to work it out
- I ain't got long
- You ain't got long
- We've gotta know what this life's all about, ooh
- Tell me
- Tryin' to work it out, yeah, ooh
- ooh too late, yeah, too late, much too late, aaah

(Scene 3)
You're staring at me
With suspicion in your eye
You say what game are you playing ?
What's this that you're saying ?
I know that I can't reply
If I take you tonight
Is it making my life a lie ?
Oh you make me wonder
Did I live my life right ?

It's late - ooh, but it's time to set me free
It's late - ooh, yes I know, but there's no way it has to be
Too late - so let the fire take our bodies this night
So late - let the waters take our guilt in the tide
It's late - It's late - It's late - It's late
It's late - It's late - It's late
Oh, It's all too late

Woah, woah, c'mon
Ooh m m m m late too late oh yeah
Waaa

kısaca bir saheser...1977 de boyle kaliteli sarkı nasıl yapılır , bir vokal bukadar yardırabilir mi , niye diger queen sarkıları arasında az bilinir?cıkmazlardayım be sozluk...

Queen in değeri en bilinmezler listesinde ilk üçe adını rahat yazdırabilecek bir şarkı. Freddie vokal olarak her şarkıda zaten aşmasına rağmen bu şarkıda daha da bir aşmıştır. diğer iki şarkıya değinecek olursam ride the wild wind ve gimme the prize

Freddie mercury'nin tüm zamanların en iyi vokalisti olduğunun kanıtlarından sadece bir tanesi.
Freddie'nin aşıp yardığı vokali bir yana dursun, Gitar ve davullar da çok iyidir bu parçada.
En iyi 10 queen şarkısı diye liste yapsam bu şarkı kesinlikle listede olur.

We will rock you, we are the champions gibi Poser şarkılarının gölgesinde kalmış news of the world albümünün en aşmış şarkısı.
Brian may'ın en iyi eserlerinden biri olan bu şarkıda Freddie'nin vokal performansı muazzamdır.
Son waaa kısmında e6 notasına ulaşıyor.
