Guitarist Terry Sylvester left the group in the late 60s, and he joined another seminal Britsh rock act, The Hollies, as a replacement for the departing Graham Nash. The Swinging Blue Jeans, with some original members, soldiered on through the decades. A version of the group, with singer-songwriter and guitarist Ray Ennis remaining, continues to tour to this day.
It's Too Late Now
The Swinging Blue Jeans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's too late now for you to be blue
It's too late now for you to worry
For I've found somebody new
I've found somebody new
You had a chance, but you misused it
I tried so hard to make you love me too
But I'm all through with you
Cry, cry, cry your eyes out
It's hard, but you know what to do
Then when you find another heart to play with you
Think before you break it into
It's too late now for you to be sorry
It's too late now for you to be blue
It's too late now for you to worry
For I've found somebody new
Cry, cry, cry your eyes out
It's hard, but you know what to do
Then when you find another heart to play with you
Think before you break it into
You had a chance, but you misused it
I tried so hard to make you love me too
Now that I'm gone, you find you need me
But I'm all through with you
I'm all through with you
I'm all through with you
The Swinging Blue Jeans's song It's Too Late Now is a classic tale of a failed relationship. The singer of the song is addressing their former partner, informing them that it is "too late now" to make amends or to worry, as they have already found somebody new. The tone of the song is somewhat lighthearted, as the singer seems to be relishing in the fact that they have moved on, while their former partner is left to deal with the aftermath of their mistakes.
The lyrics of the song suggest that the singer had been working hard to make their relationship work, but their partner had misused the opportunity they were given. Now that the singer has left, their partner suddenly realizes that they need them, but it is too late. They are all done with them, and the former partner is left to pick up the pieces of their broken heart.
The song ends with a warning to the former partner. They are told to cry their eyes out and think before they break someone else's heart again. The overall message of the song is one of closure and moving on, with the singer telling their former partner that they are all done with them.

It's too late now for you to be sorry
You can't apologize now, it's too late
It's too late now for you to be blue
Feeling sad won't change anything, it's too late
It's too late now for you to worry
Don't worry now, it's too late to fix things
For I've found somebody new
I've moved on and found a new person
I've found somebody new
I'm happy and have moved on with someone new
You had a chance, but you misused it
You had an opportunity, but you ruined it
I tried so hard to make you love me too
I did my best to make you love me back
Now that I'm gone, you find you need me
Now that I'm not around, you realize you miss me
But I'm all through with you
However, I'm done with you
Cry, cry, cry your eyes out
You can cry and be upset
It's hard, but you know what to do
It's tough, but you'll figure it out
Then when you find another heart to play with you
In the future, if you find someone else to toy with
Think before you break it into
Be thoughtful before you hurt them too
I'm all through with you
I'm done with you
