born too late - martyn joseph lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i should have gone to laurel canyon, 1971
could have sung some songs to joni, hung out in the sun
born too late, i was born too late for that

[verse 2]
art said go to nashville when we toured in ’94
chase the edge of that new country, boy, just walk right through the door
born too late, i was born too late for that, yes i was

[chorus]
well, how long does it take for a man to know himself?
how long does it take for a man to know himself?

[verse 3]
well, you can lie just like the kremlin in an americana band
plant your flag in the sinai desert and watch the armies land
born too late, i was born too late for that

[verse 4]
and when thе priests bless the liar, whеn the liar has his way
i never thought i’d wake up now, see that in my day
thought i was born too late, thought i was born too late for that, yes

[chorus]
well, how long does it take for a man to know himself?
how long does it take for a man to know himself?
[verse 5]
and you can live on borrowed memory, replay a thousand scenes
but miss the mighty wisdom while you’re waiting on your dream
born too late, i was born too late for that

[verse 6]
i can feel the tension rising, feel that rank and file
but i didn’t see josephine baker taken by my granddad’s smile
i was born too late, i was born too late for that, ah, yes i was

[chorus]
how long does it take for a man to know himself?
how long does it take for a man to know himself?
well, how long does it take for a man to know himself?
how long does it take for a man to know himself?

[verse 7]
i should have gone to california in 1971
hung out with crosby, stills, nash and neil young
