Sometimes we love, sometimes we hate We love the wrong ones We hate the wrong ones And when we realise, it is a little too late Sometimes we accept, sometimes we reject We accept the wrong ones We reject the right ones And when we realise, we feel pain in retrospect Sometimes we hope, when we should not Then we give up hope, when we should not Sometimes we stop, when we should walk Then we say nothing, when we should talk In love, in life, in our daily dealings We let go of things which give our lives meaning and hold fast to fading illusions If only we could have vision! Then we would love and accept aright We would not hate and reject amiss We would give and take a chance These visions will make us wiser But, what if it is man's fate to never be clever? I hope you find the strength I hope you go the length For even if it seems too late, it is better late than never

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
Sometimes we love, sometimes we hate We love the wrong ones We hate the wrong ones And when we realise, it is a little too late Sometimes we accept, sometimes we reject We accept the wrong ones We reject the right ones And when we realise, we feel pain in retrospect Sometimes we hope, when we should not Then we give up hope, when we should not Sometimes we stop, when we should walk Then we say nothing, when we should talk In love, in life, in our daily dealings We let go of things which give our lives meaning and hold fast to fading illusions If only we could have vision! Then we would love and accept aright We would not hate and reject amiss We would give and take a chance These visions will make us wiser But, what if it is man's fate to never be clever? I hope you find the strength I hope you go the length For even if it seems too late, it is better late than never
