Peel away the long drift that�s so pale You�re hanging on by your fingernails The mirror I play that never gets it right That you solicit in the middle of the night A frozen skyline stood on an icy rail You�re hanging on by your fingernails
Maybe it�s too late to hear it Maybe it�s too late to buy But when you�re always saying means believing Baby it�s too late to cry
Threw open them doors Rode in on them coattails You�re hanging on by your fingernails I like to dream of things in the opposite of no Like Dixon long to Smith to Thomas in on goal The truth of knowing any part of it could fail Ya we were hanging on by our fingernails
Maybe it�s too late to hear it Maybe it�s too late to buy But when you�re always saying means believing Baby it�s too late to cry
