"It's Too Late" is a rock ballad from Carole King's 1971 album Tapestry.
Toni Stern wrote the lyrics and King wrote the music. It was released as a single in April 1971 and reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Adult Contemporay charts. Sales were later gold-certified by the RIAA. Billboard ranked "It's Too Late" and its fellow A-side "I Feel The Earth Move", as the number three record for 1971.
Toni Stern told author Sheila Weller that she wrote the lyrics in a single day, after her love affair with James Taylor ended. The recording won a Grammy Award for Record of the Year in 1972, and the song is included in Rolling Stone's Greatest 500 Hits of All Times.
