[Verse 1]
Down to the banks of the river
We drink to the sound of people passing by
Oh and you look so pretty
As we dance to the beat of the shivers down my spine

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh and I can see it in their eyes
Their eyes

[Chorus]
I'm too late
I’m too late
So down to the banks of the river
I get on my knees and pray
Oh, will you be my saving grace?
Grace

[Verse 2]
Sleeping rough at the gates of heaven
Yeah, I'm dressed like a worn down beggar by your side
I know I can love you better
Like the rain couldn't get much wetter if it tried

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh and it hurts to say they’re right
They're right
[Chorus]
I'm too late
I'm too late
So down to the banks of the river
I get on my knees and pray
Oh, will you be my saving grace?
Grace
I'm too late
I'm too late
I'm too late

[Bridge]
She got sick of calling
I was scared of falling
Down deeper
Right where you always wanted
I can see them watching
Said you were too good for me
I'll just wait here for you
Right where you always wanted
Right where you always wanted

[Chorus]
Oh, will you be my saving grace?
Grace
Guess I’m too late
