It’s Too Late Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Stayed in bed all mornin' just to pass the time
There's somethin' wrong here, there can be no denyin'
One of us is changin', or maybe we've just stopped tryin'

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Used to be so easy, livin' here with you
You were light and breezy, an' I knew just what to do
Now you look so unhappy, and I feel like a fool

[Chorus]
And it's too late, baby now, it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Somethin' inside has died, and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it, oh, no, no

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
There'll be good times again for me and you
But we just can't stay together; don't you feel it too?
Still I'm glad for what we had and how I once loved you

[Chorus]
And it's too late, baby now, it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Somethin' inside has died, and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it, oh, no, no
Woah no oh
[Outro]
It's too late, It's too late
It's too late, It's too late
It's too late, It's too late
It's too late, It's too late

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
