It's a little too late I'm a little too gone, A little too tired of just hangin' on So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to It's got a little too sad I'm a little too blue It's a little too bad You were too good to be true I'm big time over you baby It's a little too late No I don't want to want to talk about what we can do about us anymore Only time you and me wastin' is the time it takes to walk right out that door Yeah talk about water under the bridge, You should know by now girl that's all this is It's a little too late I'm a little too gone, A little too tired of just hangin' on So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to It's got a little too sad I'm a little too blue It's a little too bad You were too good to be true I'm big time over you baby It's a little too late There was a time, This heart of mine, Would take you back every time Don't you know It's been two packs of cigarettes A sleepless night A nervous wreck, a day ago. Now you ain't got no business coming around I'm closing up shop Shuttin' us down It's a little too late I'm a little too gone, A little too tired of just hangin' on So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to It's got a little too sad I'm a little too blue It's a little too bad You were too good to be true I'm big time over you baby It's a little too late I'm big time over you baby, It's a little too late
