There's something I gotta say, baby, it ain't gonna be easy
There's nothing about it that won't bring a tear to my eye
Everything that we been through you got to believe me
And it's time for us to realize
It's too late and I hate to see you go

I'll always remember that you were the woman saved me
You'll never hear about me disrespecting your name
I'll never forget all the passion and loving you gave me
And I'm hoping that you feel the same

It's too late and I hate to see you go
It's too late but you'll stay with me when I go
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Maybe the next time I see you I know you'll be happy
You're gonna have a new love, he'll be holding your hand
Maybe that could be the reason that all of this happened
And I hope it never happens again

It's too late and I hate to see you go
It's too late but you'll stay with me when I go
It's too late and I hate to see you go
It's too late and you'll stay with me when I go
