Lyrics

1. TOO LATE FOR LOVE

Somewhere in the distance i hear the bells ring
Darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing
The lady 'cross the street she shuts out the night
There's a cast of thousands waiting as she turns out the light

But it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Yes it's too late too late, too late
Too late for love

London boys are gazin', 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

Standing by the trapdoor aware of me and you
Are the actor and the clown their waiting for their cue
And there's a lady over there she's acting pretty cool
But when it comes to playing life she's always playin'the fool


2. FOOLIN'

Lady luck never smiles
So lend your love to me, awhile
Do with me what you will
Break the spell take your fill

On and on we rode the storm
The flame has died, the fire has gone
Oh, this empty bed is a night alone
I realized that long ago

Is anybody out there? anybody there?
Does anybody wonder? anybody care?

Oh, i just gotta know
If you're really there and you really care
'Cause baby i'm not

F-f-f-foolin', ah f-f-foolin'
Not f-f-f-foolin', ah f-f-Foolin'
Won't you stay with me awhile

Close your eyes don't run and hide
Easy love is no easy ride
Just wakin' up from what we had
Could stop good love from going bad
