Too Late (UK Album Version)

When he comes home intoxicated from the club

All the kids they go and snuggle up to mom

He starts shouting again, he starts running again

This ain't no life for them to lead

In her mind she knows she has to let him go

In the children's eyes she sees the fear inside

How does she tell him, he won't take it not him

This ain't no life for them to lead

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to go

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to...

In the morning when he wakes up from the couch

Not recalling what had happened the night before

He starts asking questions, he don't get no answers

What the hell's going on in here

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to go

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to...

Too late... bye-bye

Too late... bye-bye

She starts saying she can't take it no more

When he comes home he always beats her to the floor

This old life she's giving, hey, about them leaving

He can't take it at all, but it's

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to go

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

I just got to let you know, yeah, yeah

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to...

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to go

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye

Now's my time to...

I don't have to stay with you

I can take the kids and go

I can make it on my own

So you think you've got me now

But I'm gonna let you know

I can make it on my own

All these things she says to him

He sits down and does not know

What he is supposed to say

He starts feeling deep inside

That he's losing something strong

And he does not know just what to do

Too late, too late, baby, bye-bye
