| I had the capo on the 4th fret on the
acoustic and finger picked the Peter Caragiulo riff. Cole said make it part
two, finish off the story. It was a great idea and I wrote the lyrics very
quickly. My friend Mark actually rang 66th Precinct and followed up events,
so thanks to him too. Cole sings this one - a splendid vocal. England seems so far away now From New York, America But I needed to know somehow What happened to this boy, Peter So I rang 66th Precinct And the desk sergeant he helped me Get in touch with detective Diaz And she gave me this news She told me they had found you As if asleep And it's all dark now Peter was found after he vanished Beneath the Manhattan railway tracks He'd been taking a short cut home He fell and died alone by accident The chances of this are one in a million But it was late and the skyline was dark They still say fact is stranger than fiction That the end can also be the start Oh Peter Oh Peter Oh Peter Caragiulo Why did you go Are you at peace now Peter Caragiulo was only 21 He stood 6ft tall and his hair was brown He left a girlfriend who still lives in Brooklyn And he's survived by their baby son The Empire State shines like a beacon To all the waifs and strays and the disappeared I know the lost can never be replaced But memory allows the passed to be here Oh Peter Oh Peter Oh Peter Caragiulo Why did you go And can you hear me now And it's all dark now And it's all dark now |
