Lonely Late Nighter (2 Meter Session - 12th February, 1994)

There's a bottle of wine

And a time-torn record sleeve

Lying on the floor

As the needle hits the vinyl for the final time

There's a hole in the sky

And grey dots on my TV

And I always thought that would be

The perfect video for these times

While a lonely late-nighter

Plays on my hi-fi

A song in the sad key from the heart of man

Tells me not to be ashamed to cry

A lonely late-nighter

It plays on my stereo

A voice in the darkness sings

Convinces me that I am not alone

Lonely late, lonely late

A lonely late-nighter

Oh, it plays on my mind

Makes me feel that I'm reaching you in some crazy way

Even though I know it's a lost cause this time

This room's like a bomb site

Today I'm not moving

There's a bottle of wine

Better make that two

Locked out the world

And the only sound in here

Is the click of the run-off groove

And something I forgot to say to you

While a lonely late-nighter

Plays on my hi-fi

A song in the sad key from the heart of man

It tells me not to be ashamed to cry

A lonely late-nighter

It plays on my stereo

A voice in the darkness sings

Convinces me that I am not alone

Lonely late, lonely late

A lonely late-nighter

It plays on my mind

Makes me feel that I'm reaching you in some crazy way

Even though I know it's a lost cause this time

Turn out the lights

It's over
