Far Too Late

Andrew Lloyd Webber


Far too late to sing a love song
Now that midnight's come and gone
There's no happy ever after
I ran away

Too ashamed to ever face you
I have shattered all my dreams
Time for tears instead of laughter
Too proud to stay

If I could
I would show you how I'm sorry
How I long to clean the slate
But it's far too late

If I run to you
If I begged you to forgive me
We might share a different fate
But it's far too late

Far too late to sing a love song
You're in someone else's arms
Far too late for second-guessing
My chance is gone
Far too wilful to forget you
Though I have to let you go
There's no point in my obsessing
You're moving on

If I could
I would somehow turn the clock back
End this heartache I create
But it's far too late

If I run to you
And you saw me with my guard down
In this sad, remorseful state
But it's far too late
Far too late to sing a love song

Far too late to sing a love song
You're in someone else's arms
Far too late for second-guessing
My chance is gone

If I could
I would show you how I'm sorry
How I long to clean the slate
But it's far too late
If I run to you
If I begged you to forgive me
We might share a different fate
But it's far too late

Far too late to sing a love song
You're in someone else's arms
