A first FILK, to the tune of Simon and Garfunkel's
"The Only Living Boy in New York" by JuHu, who has
finally been able to mourn Sirius' death properly.
Alas, after eighteen hours of straight reading (from
midnight when I had OoP in my hot little hand) I was
so tired and relieved JK had finally killed the
mystery person, it was hard to get worked up.

The Only Living Boy at Hogwarts

Scene: HARRY sits concealed on the edge of the lake,
mourning the loss of his godfather

HARRY:
Here to bid my last good-bye
On the morrow I'll be just fine
You fell through the veil
Da-n-da-da-n-da-n-da-da and here I am,
The only living boy at Hogwarts

I feel so isolated since 'ole Dumble's report
It's almost like I'm wholly from a diff'rent sort
Now, I've got nothing to do today but mourn 
Da-n-do-da-n-do-da-n-do here I am
The only living boy at Hogwarts

I know you're gone, you're gone, but I don't know
where
And I don't know where

HARRY pauses, and thinks he can almost hear SIRIUS
singing faintly:
Ah. . .
Here I am.

HARRY looks up hopefully, then supposes that he
imagined it. 

HARRY:
I know you're gone, you're gone, but I don't know
where
And I don't know where

HARRY with SIRIUS "Ahhing" in the background:
You've never kept me waiting before
A veil, nothing more than a locked door
But I'll let your memory shine, shine, shine
Da-n-da-da-n-da-n-da-da
Let it shine on me

SIRIUS:
Here I am

HARRY:
The only living boy at Hogwarts
The only living boy at Hogwarts

During a musical interlude HARRY numbly skips rocks
across the lake's surface.

SIRIUS:
Ah. . .
Here I am.

TOGETHER:
Ah. . .
Here I am.
