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.
 I'm here for you, only to adore you.
 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.
