Too Late the Hero

[Verse 1: Sandra Stevens]
He was a boy from New York City
I was a girl from Santa Fe
I met him while out walking
And we just started talking

[Verse 2]
We stayed together through the daytime
And when he walked me home that night
They came from out the darkness
I heard someone behind us
He turned around to face the fight

[Verse 3]
The shots they rang out
And I just cried out
I was alone
Too late the hero
Never gonna love again
Too late the hеro
Why did it ever have to еnd?
Too late the hero
Why the hell did they kill him?
Too late the hero
When I think what could have been

[Verse 4]
Oh, how it hurts when I remember
But I still think about that night
I see his face before me
It's such a sad, sad story
They killed a light that shown strong

[Reprise]
The shots they rang out
And I just cried out
I was alone
Too late the hero
Never gonna love again
Too late the hero
Why did it ever have to end?
Too late the hero
Why the hell did they kill him?
Too late the hero
When I think what could have been

[Outro]
Too late the hero
Never gonna love again
Too late the hero
Why did it ever have to end?
Too late the hero
Why the hell did they kill him?
Too late the hero
When I think what could have been
Too late the hero
