| The Clarks – Born Too Late Lyrics | 22 years ago |

This is a great song...one of my favorites. I think it means that when you're having a downward turn in your life, you can look to the greats of the past for inspiration. This song lists a lot of them, and below are my ideas about who they are. Of course, there could be other interpretations on a few of them. Verse One Vincent Van Gogh, Mother Theresa, and John Lennon. Verse Two William Shakespeare (or William Faulkner), Cassius Clay aka Muhammad Ali (or Cassius the Roman), and Thomas Aquinas (that lyric above should be Thomas A. I think I see the light). Verse Three Jimi Hendrix, Elvis Presley, Jerry Garcia Verse Four The first three are self-explanatory, and Christopher Columbus (line should be Christopher I think I see the bay) Good song! |
