I've been sittin' all night listenin' to my records
Makin' up my mind, I'd call you up but I'm never on time
And it's too late for tonight
If you weren't so far away, I'd just ring you up
Got a lot to say but the city sky soon will see it's first light
And it's too late for tonight
You brought me home one night and left me
Standing on your stairs
Turned around to lock your door but I wasn't even there
That was a long time ago, I'm thinkin', laughing and I miss you so
And I'm all right but I can't close my eyes
And it's too late for tonight
The hours are long and quiet an' it's drifting through my mind
Some sweet, sultry night, you'll be by my side
I could see the sky so clearly now, the silver an' [Incomprehensible] moon
Oh, the record player humming so dearly in the other room
Was it BJ, 1972? He's wishin', he's hopin'
And he's feelin' blue, an' I'm floating on a sweet lullaby
And it's too late for tonight
Oh, goodnight, my dear, goodnight
