"Late"

                        
It's oh so late, are you asleep?
                                             
There's not a sound, so it's time for me to dream.
                          
The window pane, late city scenes,
                             
so far away from where I was weaned.

                        
There was a girl so long ago, 
                                
all through the park at night we go.
                         
All just as late as it is now, 
                               
two discontented, a young one's vow.

                                          
I'm here for you, only to adore you.
                      
You mean everything to me.
                            
And you're with me wherever I go,
                          
and I miss you everywhere I go.

                             
Well, goodbye to old friends,

I watched you go.
                                    
>From where I sit now, I still say hello.
                                               
All the memories gone by, those that I couldn't call.
                                   
An eternal divide, the distance too long.


Dead as a mackerel.

Dead as a door.
                           
Dead as a nail, but never a bore.


Always good for a laugh.

Always good for a shout.
                                            
Always good for a memory when the lights are out.
