Lyrics

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?
