"Too Late for Goodbyes" is the first single (second in the U.S.) from Julian Lennon's 1984 album Valotte. It featured the harmonica of Jean "Toots" Thielemans, and it was a top-ten hit in the UK and U.S., reaching No. 6 in the UK Singles Chart in November 1984,[1] and No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in late March 1985.[2] B-side "Big Mama" has been described by Lennon as "semi-hard rock".[3][4]

"Too Late for Goodbyes" peaked at No. 1 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart in 1985,[2] spending two weeks at the top of this chart. The music video for the song was directed by Sam Peckinpah,[5] and produced by Martin Lewis.[6] To date, it is the most successful song of Lennon's singing career.
