Somewhere in the distance, I hear the bells ring
Darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing
And the lady 'cross the street, she shuts out the night
There's a cast of thousands waitin' as she turns out the lightBut it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, too late
Too lateLondon boys are gazin', girls go hand in hand
With a pocket full of innocence, their entrance is grand
And the queen of the dream, stands before them all
She stretches out her hand as the curtains start to fallBut it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, it's too late
Too lateStandin' by the trapdoor, aware of me and you
Are the actor and the clown, they're waiting for their cue
And there's a lady over there, she's acting pretty cool
But when it comes to playin' life, she always plays the foolBut it's too late, too late, it's too late
Too late for love
Too late, it's too late, too late
Too lateIs it all too late?
Much too late?
Can't you see it's all too late?
Yeah, it's too lateToo late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, too late
Too lateToo late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late, too late
