Later, Later On

Later, later on

That's when you choose to phone

I can't say no

You can't choose when to let go

In some ways it's lovely to hear from you, baby

Lovely to hear you're okay

That you're doing well

In some ways it's lovely to hear from you, baby

Maybe there'll be one day

When I won't need to know

Later never comes

Not the first call or the second one

Are you drunk? Feeling blue?

Are you with somebody new?

I'd like to think that I don't care

I don't mind sitting by the telephone

It's not like I've got a lot to lose

So tonight I'll be sitting home alone

Just in case you call to say goodnight

I don't mind sitting by the telephone

It's not like I've got a lot to lose

So tonight I'll be sitting home alone

Just in case you call to say goodnight

Goodnight

Later, later on
