Somewhere in the distance i hear the bells ring
darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing
and the lady and'cross the street she shuts out the night
thereand's a cast of thousands waiting
as she turns out the light
But itand's too late, too late, too late
too late for love
yes itand's too late, too late, too late
too late for love
London boys are gazing as the 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 fall
But itand's too late, too late, too late
too late for love
yes itand's too late, too late, itand's too late
too late for love
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 curtain starts to fall
But itand's too late, too late, too late
too late for love
yes itand's too late, too late, itand's too late
too late for love
Standing by the trapdoor aware of me and you
are the actor and the clown theyand're waiting for their cue
and thereand's a lady over there sheand's acting pretty cool
but when it comes to playing life
she always plays the fool
and thereand's a lady over there sheand's acting pretty cool

But itand's too late, too late, itand's too late
too late for love
itand's too late, itand's too late, too late
too late for love
Is it all too late
much too late
canand't you see itand's all too late
itand's too late
But itand's too late, too late, itand's too late
too late for love
itand's too late, itand's too late, too late
too late for love
