about
“Never Too Late” was originally written for consideration as the theme song to the CBS hour-long dramedy, “That’s Life” (2000-2002). The song didn’t fit stylistcally with Mike’s band at the time, Every Damn Day, but it did somewhat inform the direction of Mike Daly & The Planets
lyrics
I got sidetracked for a while
But that was yesterday
And now I'm getting back into the game
Hope I still know how to play
Well, they say it's never too late
But I guess I've had my doubts
Yeah, they say it's never too late
But I guess we'll soon find out
I created my own world
And then I stopped to rest
But time had almost passed me by
Before I could catch my breath
Well, they say it's never too late
But I guess I've had my doubts
Yeah, they say it's never too late
But I guess we'll soon find out
Still I never lost my thirst for knowledge
Now I aim to drink my fill
You see, I'm finally at my best
'Cause I've grown into my skin
And I have studied for this test
Call the roll and let's begin
Well, they say it's never too late
But I guess I've had my doubts
Yeah, they say it's never too late
But I guess we'll soon find out
Well, they say it's never too late
But I guess I've had my doubts
Yeah, they say it's never too late
But I guess we'll soon find out
