Hi, I'm mark and new to this site. I hope some one can help with this question.
About 1979, 80 or 81 I would listen to this upbeat song called it's too late. But I don't know when the song came out, it was in a collection of a friends albums.
The first line is,

It's about time to say goodbye
Nothing more to try.

And the last lines are.

It's too late for "I miss you"
It's too late for "I care"
It's too late for "I love you"
It's too late
I don't care

I believe it was written by novaspace. But I can't seem to find out who was singing it. It sounded close to someone like the Kinks.
Does anyone know the answer to this?
Thank you.
Mark

I'm thinking it's Carole King.

I'm thinking it's Carole King.
Thanks for trying, but that's not it. Here are the lyrics.

It's about time to say goodbye
Nothing more to try
Seems that my love was born to die
Please don't ask me why
'Cause you know
So I packed my bags and I'm leaving you behind
I won't cry any tears for you no more

It's too late to say you're sorry
It's too late to regret

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

Just can't believe the things you say
Fakes like knowing may
So there's no chance to make me stay
Sorry I won't wait anymore
Time to face the truth
And there is no turning back
I'll be gone
Until the end of time

It's too late to say you're sorry
It's too late to regret

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

It's too late for "I miss you"
It's too late for "I care"
It's too late for "I love you"
It's too late
I don't care


It's about time to say goodbye
Nothing more to try
Seems that my love was born to die
Please don't ask me why
'Cause you know
So I packed my bags and I'm leaving you behind
I won't cry any tears for you no more

It's too late to say you're sorry
It's too late to regret

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

Just can't believe the things you say
Fakes like knowing may
So there's no chance to make me stay
Sorry I won't wait anymore
Time to face the truth
And there is no turning back
I'll be gone
Until the end of time

It's too late to say you're sorry
It's too late to regret

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

Where have you been
When I needed you
Where have you been
When I was feeling blue
Please stop telling that you wait for me
'Cause it's too late
It's too late

It's too late for "I miss you"
It's too late for "I care"
It's too late for "I love you"
It's too late
I don't care

I'm sorry but, the lyrics doesn't ring a bell. Maybe you can find out with some research on the web..
If I can find it I'll help you find out.
