LATE NIGHT, MAUDLIN STREET
(Morrissey/Stephen Street)

(Winter coming
winter push on
winter is so long
winter moves on)

The last night on Maudlin Street
goodbye house
goodbye stairs
I was born here
and I was raised here, and
...I’ve took some stick here
love at first sight
it may sound trite
but it's true, you know
I could list the detail
of everything you ever wore
or said, or how you stood that day
as we spend the last night
on Maudlin Street
"goodbye house - forever!"
I never stole a happy hour
around here
Where the world's ugliest boy
became what you see
here I am – the ugliest man
oh, the last night on Maudlin Street
truly I do love you
oh, truly I do love you

When I sleep
with that picture of you
framed beside my bed
oh, it's childish and it's silly
but I think it's you in my room
by the bed (...yes, I told you it was silly...)
and I know
I took strange pills
but I never meant to hurt you
oh truly I love you

Came home late one night
everyone had gone to bed
but, you know
no-one stays up for you
I had sixteen stitches
all around my head
oh, the last bus I missed to Maudlin Street
so, he drove me home in the Van
complaining: "Women only like me for my mind..."
Don't leave your torch behind
a power-cut ahead
1972, you know
and so we crept through the park
no I cannot steal a pair of jeans
off a clothesline for you
but you... without clothes
oh I could not keep a straight face
me - without clothes?
well a nation turns its back and gags...
I'm packed
I am moving house
a half-life disappears today
with "every hand waves me on"
(secretly wishing me gone
well, I will be soon
oh - I will be soon, I will be soon)
I will be soon, will be soon, I will be soon
mmm... I will be soon, I will be soon

There were bad times on Maudlin Street
they took you away in a police car
inspector - don't you know?
don't you care?
don't you know - about Love?
Your gran died
and your mother died
on Maudlin Street
in pain and ashamed
with never time to say
those special things ...oh
I took the key from Maudlin Street
well, it's only bricks and mortar!
oh, oh… truly I love you
oh, wherever you are
wherever you are, wherever you are
I hope you're singing now
oh, I do hope
I hope you're singing now, oh...
