Too Late To Turn Back Now
Composer(s): Eddie Lee Cornelius Jr.
First release: Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose - 1972



My mama told me, she said, "Boy, please beware
There's this thing called love and it's everywhere"
She tells me, "It can break your heart and leave you in misery"
Ever since I met this little woman
I feel it's happening to me, and I'm tellin' you
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
Oh, it's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
I found myself wanting her at least ten times a day
You know, it's so unusual for me to carry on this way 
I'm tellin' you
I can't sleep at night 
I want you to hold me tight
I've tried so hard to convince myself
This feeling just can't be right, and I'm tellin' you
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
Oh, it's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
I wouldn't mind it if I knew she really loved me too
But I hate to think that I'm in love alone and nothing that I can do
Whoa
oh

It's too late to turn back now 
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
Oh, it's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
My mama told me, she said, "Son, please beware
'Bout this thing called love and it's everywhere"
She told me, "She can break your heart
Ooh, and put you in misery"
Since I met this new woman, I do believe it's happening to me
Let me tell ya
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
I find myself wanting her at least ten times a day
You know, that's so unusual for me to carry on this way 
I tell ya
I can't sleep at night for wanting to hold her tight
Ooh, I've tried so hard convincing myself 
This feeling just can't be right 
Let me tell ya
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
It's too late, ooh, baby, ooh yeah 
It's too late, baby
Now I wouldn't mind it not if I knew she loved me too
I'd hate to think that I'm in love alone 
And there's nothing that I can do 
Whoa, oh
It's too late to turn back now 
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
Ooh baby, I tell you. I believe 
I believe, I believe I'm falling in love
