Late Night Conversations Lyrics

summer’s gone, and I am waiting for
new beginnings with better endings
long nights for the sleep deprived
friends fading while falling in love
i’ll write these letters to you
from a desk in my room that’s bleeding truth
and i wont sleep so i’ll have
no regrets to waste on you
we'll fight the good fight
waiting up
for the phone to ring off the hook
i’ve waited so long to hear
goodnight until sunrise
lets drink to our fallen friends
to our failures and our futures
wasted on the ride home
fight the feeling we’re not alone
i got this feeling i can’t shake
tonight
so i’ll call you for the hundredth time
just asking for a reply

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

My favorite Forecast song, it's amazing.

It's about summer. To me it's about friends who fall in love during the summer and at the end of it break-up.

"friends fading while falling in love"

Friendship fades into something more. The friendship is forever gone.

But one person out of the relationship still wants to be together, so their trying to make the other person come back.

"so i’ll call you for the hundredth time just asking for a reply"

I would say not so much summer as is autumn. "Summer's gone". I made a cd recently with an autumn theme and this song was on it. Then "fallen friends" part makes me sad.

I wish more people would comment on this song, there's so much more to it we haven't discussed!
