Baby, Am I Too Late? Lyrics - Catman Cohen

Met a young man on the road 

Who looked me in the eye so cold 

Told me I was way too old 

To write songs 

In the USA 

Met a young man full of hate 

Who called me grandpa to my face 

Said I never could relate 

To young kids 

In the USA 

And he asked.... 

Why did you wait so long 

To sit down and write a song? 

And he said...... 

Grandpa, you waited too long 

Its too late to write your songs 

Twenty years ago 

Never had the heart 

Never had the sight 

Twenty years ago 

Never had the smarts 

Never saw the light 

Twenty years ago 

Never felt the pain 

Never felt the awe 

Twenty years ago 

Never felt my shame 

Never knew my flaws 

Theres nothing I can write today 

I could have written way back then 

Nothing I can write today 

Could be written with a younger pen 

And I ask.... 

Baby , am I too late? 

Tell me baby, Tell me now 

Baby, writing songs is all I've ever wanted to do
