Ralph McTell - This Time of Night lyrics

[Ralph McTell - This Time of Night lyrics]

Thank you for the party and I
Thank you for the wine
I think I better get along now
I know it's time
And maybe you were wrong and maybe
Maybe you were right
But I won't talk about it now
This time of night

About what happened, well, what can I say?
'Cept it was bound to happen sometime anyway
And you want me to say that
I'm sorry, well, alright, alright, alright
Alright but I won't ask forgiveness from you
Now this time of night

Don't you see, my friend
I been laying it down on the line
About what happened
Well I do not blame the wine
And if I stick around much
Longer you'd be asking, asking me to fight
That would not solve anything now
This time of night

Oh, my friend
I don't expect you to see me to the door
And I don't suppose you'll see me
Coming round here much anymore
And do not feel
Oh do not feel you have to say good-night
It's much too late for words
Like that right now, this time of night
