(M. Gaye/A. Gaye/E. Stover) 



You were my life, my hopes and dreams

For you to understand what this means

I shall explain

I stood all the jealousy all the bitching too

Yes I forgot all once in bed with you

Ooh darling how could we end up like this

Ooh baby let me reminisce 



And when we ooh we stopped the hands of time

You set my soul on fire my one desire was to love you

And think of you with pride and to keep you satisfied

Ooh baby, ooh baby

We could not bear the man's astray



Leave you I never meant to

Now you see how much you hurt me

But if you ever need me I'll be by your side

Though the many happy times we had

Can never really outweigh the bad



I never loved nobody like I loved you baby

Now it's time for us to say farewell

Farewell my darling

Maybe we'll meet down the line



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 to late for you and me

Much to late for you and I

It's too late for you and me

Much too late



We tried god knows we tried

didn't we didn't we didn't we try

God knows we tried

it's too late for you and me

Much too late for you to cry



We stopped the hands of time

Ooh ooh

Its too late for you and I
