Lyrics[]
"Too Late for Love"
Def Leppard
Somewhere in the distance
I hear the bells ring
Darkness settles on the town
As the children start to sing
And the lady across the street
She shuts out the night
A cast of thousands waiting
As she turns out the light
But it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late
Too late, too late
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 it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late
It's too late, too late
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh yeah
Standing by the trapdoor
Aware of me and you
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 playing life
She always plays the fool
But it's too late, too late, it's too late
Too late for love
Too late, it's too late
Too late, too late
Oh, oh, oh, oh, It's a little too late
Oh, oh, that's too late
Oh, oh, is it all too late?
Yeah, it's too late
Too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, oh yeah
Too late, oh yeah
Too late, too late
Too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Too late, too late
Too late, too late
Too late for love
