Too late, too late ask for forgiveness
Too late, too late for me to cry
She's gone, she's gone, she left this morning
And this is how she said good-by
Upon my pillow was a letter
It said I still don't want to go
But if you don't change your way of living
May God have mercy on your soul
* Refrain
You know I loved you as no other
But you have played around too long
Good-by, good luck and don't forget me
For I will be a long time gone
* Refrain
Too late, too late my heart keeps crying
I always knew she'd go away
Too late, too late now I must suffer
It always seems to end this way
* Refrain
