I'm holdin' on your rope,

Got me ten feet off the ground.

And I'm hearin' what you say,

But I just can't make a sound.

You tell me that you need me,

Then you go and cut me down...

But wait...

You tell me that you're sorry,

Didn't think I'd turn around

And say...



[Chorus]

That it's too late to apologize.

It's too late...

I said it's too late to apologize.

It's too late, too late, oh, oh.



[Verse 2]

I'd take another chance,

Take a fall, take a shot for you, oh, oh.

I need you like a heart needs a beat,

But it's nothin' new, yeah!

I loved you with a fire red,

Now it's turnin' blue

And you say...

Sorry, like an angel

Heaven let me think was you

But I'm afraid...



[Chorus]

It's too late to apologize.

It's too late.

I said it's too late to apologize.

It's too late, whoa!



[Interlude]



[Chorus]

It's too late to apologize.

It's too late.

I said it's too late to apologize.

It's too late.



I said it's too late to apologize, yeah (too late)!

I said it's too late to apologize, yeah (too late)!



I'm holdin' on your rope,

Got me ten feet off the ground.
