I remember the night you weren't at home

(Had to work late is what I heard)

That's what you said

I can never forget the way it felt,

You needed some time to work it out,

That's what you said

And now I feel a fool.

'cos late at night I call your name,

I'm wondering what for,

'cos I've seen those other guys

Sniffin' around your door.

Whatever happened to the words

'lovers for all eternity?'

That's what you said,

I was your rome, you were my juliet,

Eternally

That's what you said

And now I feel a fool.

'cos late at night I hear your voice

Calling out my name,

Oh I know it's just a dream

But every night's the same.

I carried a torch for you, through the thick and thin

You know it don't seem right that I won't see you again

No no

Late at night I call your name,

I'm wondering what for,

'cos I keep seeing those other guys

Sniffin' around your door.

I carried a torch for you through the wind and rain

I'll never forget you, but I won't see you again

No no

I thought your friends all liked me

I thought I fitted in just right,

That's what you said.

Soon I'll be gone and you'll be free,

You can go find the things that you want.

That's what you said

And I won't feel a fool

'cos late at night I still call your name,

I'm wondering what for,

'cos I keep seeing those other guys

Sniffin' around your door.

What for?
