“Too Little Too Late” is the lead single by American singer JoJo from her second studio album, The High Road. Its composition and theme about an unsuccessful relationship have drawn comparisons to JoJo’s 2004 debut single, “Leave (Get Out)” from her previous debut album.
By its second week on the B...
[Intro]
Mmh no, mmh...
Mmh-mmh
[Verse 1]
Come with me, stay the night
You say the words, but boy, it don't feel right
What do ya expect me to say?
(You know it's just too little too late)
You take my hand, and you say you've changed
But boy, you know your begging don't fool me
Because to you, it's just a game
(You know it's just too little too late)
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So let me on down
'Cause time has made me strong
I'm starting to move on
I'm gonna say this now
Your chance has come and gone
And you know...
[Chorus]
It's just too little too late
A little too wrong, and I can't wait
But you know all the right things to say
You know it's just too little too late
You say you dream of my face
But you don't like me, you just like the chase
To be real, it doesn't matter anyway
You know it's just too little too late
[Post-Chorus 1]
Yeah, yeah
It's just too little too late
Mmh-mmh
[Verse 2]
I was young and in love
I gave you everything, but it wasn't enough
And now you wanna communicate
Huh (You know it's just too little too late)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Go find someone else
In letting you go, I'm loving myself
You got a problem
But don't come asking me for help
'Cause you know...
[Chorus]
It's just too little too late
A little too wrong, and I can't wait
But you know all the right things to say
You know it's just too little too late
You say you dream of my face
But you don't like me, you just like the chase
To be real, it doesn't matter anyway
You know it's just too little too late
[Bridge]
I can love with all of my heart, baby
I know I have so much to give (I've got so much to give)
With a player like you, I don't have a prayer
That's no way to live, oh, oh-ooh
Mmh no, whoa whoa
It's just too little too late
Yeah, yeah!
[Chorus]
It's just too little too late (Too little, too late)
A little too wrong, and I can't wait (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
But you know all the right things to say (Woo!)
You know it's just too little too late
You say you dream of my face
But you don't like me, you just like the chase (You just like the chase baby)
To be real, it doesn't matter anyway (Hey, hey)
You know it's just too little too late (Ah, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Post-Chorus 2]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You know it's just too little too late (Ooh)
I can't wait, no, no, no...
[Chorus (fading)]
It's just too little too late
A little too wrong, and I can't wait
But you know all the right things to say (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know it's just too little too late
You say you dream of my face
But you don't like me, you just like the chase
To be real, it doesn't matter anyway
You know it's just too little too late
