Lyrics for Late Night
Late night carried by the wind It took such a long time To make up my mind Everything is changing But I would not attempt to control you I never could help myself I waste my time It's taking a toll on myself I waste my own time Like Mary Magdalene I'm on my knees again But if you see me as a saint You'd be mistaken Late night turning into morning blue It took such a long time To make up my own mind about you Now the sun hangs heavy and I cannot even lift my eyes To where it sits indifferently Unmoved mower of the sky I never could help myself I waste my time It's taking a toll on myself I waste my own time Like Mary Magdalene I'm on my knees again But if you see me as a saint You'd be mistaken I am the master of my ship My ship the master of the sea Through a rhetorical distinction I think I'm finally feeling free For the first time For the first time
