It's too late you say you want me but it's too late   Once my love for you was so great but it's too late to love me now   It's too bad you say you need me and it's too bad   I know the feeling and it's so sad but it's too late to love me now      Don't you know how hard I've tried to hold out just for you   Loving you from mem'ry day by day   Then someone came into my life and turned my dreams around   And he's taking all the love you turned away   It's too late you say you want me but it's too late   Once my love for you was so great but it's too late to love me now   It's too late to love me now   [ guitar ]   Don't you know how hard I've tried...
