  • It's too late now, it's twenty past two
    I spent the night just watchin' you
    I watched you dance
    I watched you move
    Can't breath and still I watched you move away

    Now I think quite a lot
    As I stare at my shoes
    About all these things
    That I put myself through
    There's nothing to say and there's nothing to do
    You're just too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to

    The right lines wouldn't come out for you
    I glance but you just stared me through
    Felt such a fool I felt you knew
    But you might tell me to go away

    Now I think quite a lot
    Of my own point of view
    Is that all I have that's in common with you
    Your emotions so guarded
    My heart is retarded
    You're too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to

    This evening hasn't gone like I planned
    Should I take the situation in hand
    Can't go on but I can't seem to dance
    You chain my feet, I stamp and stamp and stamp
    Because nothing I do ever seems to be right
    The same line to mind every Saturday night
    Out the window you might say I'm out of of my mind
    But you're too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    Too nice to talk to
    You're too nice to talk to
    Too nice Writer/s: ANDREW COX, ANDY COX, DAVID STEELE, DAVID WAKELING, EVERETT MORTON, ROGER CHARLERY
