Piano, vocal and orchestra track.

lyrics

When the knock hits the door
The footsteps out in the hall
Fall like lead from the sky
Late is the hour

When fear frees it's grip
I'll rise from my chair
I'll welcome you in
Though late is the hour

Rest you bones over there
Just let me fix my hair
What's a few minutes more
When late is the hour

Wishing all things undone
To right all my wrongs
To see the bright morning sun
Rise again
To hold somebody's hand
So I don't leave this world alone
I asked, but was told
Late is the hour.

When my will starts to ebb
Will you give me the strength
Just and eighth of an ounce
Though late is the hour

Show me when I was kind
When I made time for friends
Who still called upon me
Though late was the hour

Wherever I've walked
You were never that far behind
Now it's your turn to lead
So late is the hour

Wishing all things undone
To right all my wrongs
To see the bright morning sun
Rise again
To hold somebody's hand
So I don't leave this world alone
I asked, but was told
Late is the hour

Late is the hour.
