You were my wife
My life, my hopes and dreams
For you to understand what this means
I shall explain
I stood all the jealousy
And all the bitchin', too
Yes, I'd forget it all, ooh...
Once in bed with you
Oh, darlin'
How could we end up like this?
Oh, baby, let me reminisce, ooh...

(Ooh, baby)
And when we, ooh...
(Ah, ooh, baby)
We stop the hands of time
You set my soul on fire
My one desire was to love you
(Ah, ooh, baby)
And think of you with pride
And keep you satisfied
Oh, baby, oh, baby
We could not bear the mental strain

Leave you, I nеver meant to
(Ooh-ooh...)
Now you see how much you hurt me
But, if you еver need me
I'll be by your side
(I'll be by your side)
Though the many happy times we had
(Oh-oh...)
Can really never outweigh the bad
(Ooh, baby)
Oh, I never loved nobody
(Ah, ooh, baby)
Like I love you, baby, ooh...
Now it's time for us to say farewell
Farewell, my darlin'
Maybe we'll meet down the line
(Ooh, baby)
It's too late for you and me
It's too late for you and I
Much too late for you to cry
It's too late for you and me
(Ooh, baby)
Much too late for you and I
It's too late for you and me
Too late for you to cry, my baby, oh...
(Ooh, baby)
(Ain't nothin' left to say, baby)
Ooh, it's too late, my love, my love

Ooh-ooh...
(Ooh, baby)
I never loved nobody
Like I love you, baby
Oh, my love, my love

I guess all that's left to do
Is set it free and go on with our lives
Through it all, please understand
It was just to keep you satisfied
(Ooh, baby)
Ooh-ooh...
But it's too late
