Valerie, she had all good intentions
Probably all they told her were lies
Naturally there's a fair explanation
Times was fading her away

Life isn't always what it seams
Life isn't always 'bout your dreams
Life isn't always what we wish for it to be

She was the one to play the game
She was the one to pray for fame
She was the one to try and make it all the way

Now it's too late, too late for,
It's too late for Valerie
They said she'll come around
(They said) They said
But it's too late, too late for,
It's too late for Valerie
She never meant to run away
We never meant to let her go

Valerie, sick of posing for sinners
Probably her best friend is a gun
Naturally, falling hard is the ending
Time was fading her away

She was so dumb, she played the game
Signing in blood to hide the shame
Showing it all to try and make it through the day

Now it's too late, too late for,
It's too late for Valerie
They said she'll come around
(They said) They said
But it's too late, too late for,
It's too late for Valerie
She never meant to run away
We never meant to let her go

Valerie, your eyes are far in dreams
You fly then suddenly you face the ground
Secretly it's tasting heavenly the voice
Inside you screams, pleading for more,
Pleading for more, Valerie

Now it's too late (never thought she'd
Ruan away, Hollywood the holy grail)
Too late for Valerie
(one step forward, two steps back, it's
So sad)
Too late for
It's too late for Valerie
She never meant to run away
We never meant to let her go

It's too late
It's too late
It's gonna be alright, Valerie
