Lyrics for Song: Am I Too Late?
Lyrics for Album: Satellite Rides [2001]
When you were just a little girl in Pine Bluff,
Daddy disappeared without a trace.
Now there's no more little girls in Pine Bluff,
They all ran like tears out of this place.
(Chorus)
Am I too late
Am I too late
Tell you that I love you
Now they've carried you away
(repeat)
Never thought that you would see a sickbed,
Never thought that you'd stop bein' 'round.
Now I hear you're lost and gone forever,
Just like all the other girls in town.
(Chorus)
Now I hear that you have gone to Heaven,
And if there's one, I'm sure that's where you are.
Maybe you're the new star in the night sky,
Just outside the moonroof on my car.
(2x Chorus)
Tell you that I love you
Now they've carried you away
Tell you that I love you
Now they've carried you away
Tell you that I love you
Now they've carried you away

Am I Too Late?
Old 97s' "Am I Too Late?" stands as a defining track from their 2001 album *Satellite Rides*, capturing the band's signature blend of post-punk energy and melodic sensibility. Released during a period where the group refined their sound following the departure of original vocalist Chris Goss, the song exemplifies their ability to fuse driving rhythms with introspective lyrics. The recording reflects the band's evolution from their earlier raw, garage-rock roots into a more polished, yet distinctly gritty, style that became a hallmark of their discography. As a staple of their catalog, the track remains a powerful representation of the era's alternative rock landscape, showcasing the band's enduring influence on the genre through its dynamic performance and emotional resonance. |
