All dark now    ¯(sample, mp3, 64k/s, 477Kb)
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
