I broke your heart dear, I was untrue
And now I've lost you, what can I do
Fate played its hand, dear, though we did try
Too late to worry, too blue to cry

Our love is ended, you say we're through
You found a new love that's good to you
I hope you're happy, for I'll get by
Too late to worry, too blue to cry

(Instrumental Break)

We made our vows, dear, to never part
We laughed, we loved then we crossed our hearts
I was unfaithful, so here am I
Too late to worry, too blue to cry

I've played around, dear, I've had my way
But now I find, dear, I've had to pay
I'll always love you as days go by
Too late to worry, too blue to cry

(Instrumental Break)

Upon my pillow last night I lay
I dreamed of bygones and I did pray
But it's all over, we've said goodbye
Too late to worry, too blue to cry

As recorded by Ronnie Milsap:


I broke your heart, dear, I was untrue
And now I've lost you, what can I do
I hope you're happy, baby, for I'll get by
Too late to worry (Too late to worry)
Too blue to cry (Too blue to cry)

Our love has ended, you say we're through
You found a new love and he's so good to you
I'll always love you, baby, as days go by
It's too late to worry, worry, worry, worry
I'm too blue to cry

I hope you're happy, baby, for I'll get by
It's too late to worry, worry
I'm too blue to cry (Too blue to cry)
