It was 9:29...
9:29, back street, big city
the sun was going down
there was music all around
it felt so right.
It was one of those nights
one of those nights
when you feel the world stop turning
you were standing there
there was music in the air
i should have been away
but i knew i had to stay
Chorus:
last train to london, just heading out
last train to london, just leaving town
but i really want tonight to last forever
i really want to be with you
let the music play on down the line tonight.
It was one of those nights
one of those nights
when you feel the fire burning
everybody was there
everybody to share
it was so right.
There you were on your own
looking like you were the only one around
i had to be with you
nothing else that i could do
i should have been away
but i knew i had to stay.
Repeat chorus
Underneath a starry sky
time was still but hours must really have rushed by
i didn't realize
but love was in your eyes
i really should have gone
but love went on and on.
Repeat chorus
But i really want tonight to last forever
i really want to be with you
let the music play on down the line tonight.
