All of a Sudden (It’s Too Late) XTC

[Verse 1]
What can I say?
Why do we starve a thing that's near extinction?
From day to day
These weeds of fear are choking our conviction

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Life's like a jig-saw
You get the straight bits
But there's something missing in the middle

[Chorus]
(All of a sudden) We find the cupboard's bare
(All of a sudden) We find Heaven's not there
(All of a sudden) We find the sun's gone cold
(All of a sudden) We find we're more than old
(All of a sudden) We find that we've lost love
Please don't push or shove because
It's too late
It's too late
In all your hurry, you've accidentally locked the gate

[Verse 2]
What can we do?
Trying to stem the flow of sand seems useless
It's up to you
Start holding hands, watch the balance redress
