Lyrics

Before It's Too Late

Can't force yourself from bed
Darkness commands your soul
Life has lost its thrill
You want to be left alone
What you feel is numb
And soon you'll turn to stone
Reach out to someone
Before its too late

No future left to dream
No place for joy today
With nothing left to lose
You see no other way
You're paralyzed with fear
So tired of feeling this way
Reach out to someone
Before it's too late

If only you could see
Through this night to what could be

We only walk once through life
No one gets a second try
This final act of despair
Leaves only the question of why
There's time to think ahead
There's still time to change your mind
Reach out to someone
Before it's too late

Reach out to someone before it's too late

Lyrics Ricki E. Bellos Music Jim Purtell
