In the midnight Can you hear me? In the madness Ooh, can you see me? Mmm, I am waiting Like a mayfly It's a cold night For a May time In the moonlight Is there no sign? Mmm, I am waiting Like a mayfly Cold and lonely Waiting for daylight As the mayfly As the mayfly Take me back there again Let me feel the same way As I always used to say While there's still time, mmm While there's still time, mmm I am waiting Oh, I am waiting Yeah, I keep waiting Waiting for daylight As the mayfly As the mayfly Take me back there again Let me feel the same way As I always used to say While there's still time, mmm But as I grow every day Tryna switch off the rain And join hands in the joy we felt While there's still time, mmm While there's still time, mmm Oh, endless sleep Perchance to dream As a mayfly Oh, endless sleep Perchance to dream As a mayfly Mmm, as a mayfly Mmm, as a mayfly

You never treated me right How come I put up a fight? Yes you changed, but it don't seem like You're ready to face it You want it back But you can't have it back, no It ain't the same No We came so close to a pretty ending Now I swear it feels like I am tightening my grip on you On you, on you I held on tight to us for what it used to be Once how you looked at me You truly were part of me then Which is why now I'm hurting so badly Hate the fact that I'm lonelier by your side Being with you should feel like I'm on cloud nine So how come you just cloud my mind? You just cloud my mind, you just cloud my mind We came so close to a pretty ending Now I swear it feels like I am tightening my grip on you On you, on you We came so close to a pretty ending Our fear caught up to us as we reach The point of no return No pretty ending, no more No more (no more) No more (no more) No more (no more)

I'm awake at 03:00 a.m. Hesitate to tell you that I need a break From this break I wanna see you light my phone up Where are you? With him or with your friends I don't have friends You're my only friend, you were my only friend If I say I'm fine, I'm lying I wanna be yours again, amen It's my prayer, baby we could just spend Some conversations I'm like who try to make you out Won't you say that you're mine I'm awake at 03:00 a.m. In the night club that I don't know the name of It's all the same though I rather see you light my phone up Where are you?

Monday morning, wake up knowing that you've got to go to school Tell your mum what to expect, she says it's right out of the blue Do you want to work in Debenham's, because that's what they expect Start in Lingerie, and Doris is your supervisor And the head said that you always were a queer one from the start For careers you say you went to be remembered for your art Your obsession gets you known throughout the school for being strange Making life-size models of the Velvet Underground in clay In the queue for lunch they take the piss, you've got no appetite And the rumour is you never go with boys and you are tight So they jab you with a fork, you drop the tray and go berserk While your cleaning up the mess the teacher's looking up your skirt Hey, you've been used Are you calm, settle down? Write a song, I'll sing along Soon you will know that you are sane You're on top of the world again Monday morning, wake up knowing that you've got to go to school Tell your mum what to expect, she says it's right out of the blue Do you went to work in C&A, 'cause that's what they expect Move to laundry and take a feel off Joe the Storeman Tell Veronica the secret of the boy you never kissed She's got everything to gain 'cause she's a fat girl with a lisp She sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs 'Cause you can't afford a blazer girl you're always wearing clogs At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room Head of English gets you, asks you, "What the hell do you think you're doing?" "Do you think you're better then the other kids? Well, get outside" You've got permission, you've got to make the bastard think he's right Hey, you've been used Write a song, I'll sing along Are you calm? Settle down Soon you will know that you are sane You're on top of the world again And you're cool, and you know You're a star and you'll go far Listen to me as a friend Not just a boy who play guitar You're on top of the world again

Another sunny day, I met you up in the garden You were digging plants, I dug you, beg your pardon I took a photograph of you in the herbaceous border It broke the heart of men and flowers and girls and trees Another rainy day, we're trapped inside with a train set Chocolate on the boil, steamy windows when we met You've got the attic window looking out on the cathedral And on a Sunday evening bells ring out in the dusk Another day in June, we'll pick eleven for football (Pick eleven for football) We're playing for our lives, the referee gives us fuck all (Referee giving us fuck all) I saw you in the corner of my eye on the sidelines Your dark mascara bids me to historical deeds Now everybody's gone, you picked me up for a long drive (Picked me up for a long drive) We take the tourist route, the nights are light until midnight (Light until midnight) We took the evening ferry over to the peninsula We found the avenue of trees went up to the hill That crazy avenue of trees, I'm living there still There's something in my eye, a little midge so beguiling Sacrificed his life to bring us both eye to eye I heard the Eskimos remove obstructions with tongues, dear You missed my eye, I wonder why, I didn't complain You missed my eye, I wonder why, please do it again The lovin' is a mess, what happened to all of the feeling? (All of the feeling?) I thought it was for real, babies, rings and fools kneeling (Babies, rings and fools kneeling) And words of pledging trust and lifetimes stretching forever So what went wrong? It was a lie, it crumbled apart Ghost figures of past, present, future haunting the heart
