Once more just before I'm leaving

Torn on the platform

Once more just before I'm leaving

Torn on the platform

 

'Cause I miss you and I love you

And I know this is over for now

'Cause I miss you, oh, how I miss you

You're not my girl you're my town

 

A weekend away, leave the city today

Don't want the big smoke to leave me behind

The train leaves at 2, Platform 3 Waterloo

50 p to the tramp makes me feel kind

 

I get a good seat with a window

My feet are up on the one in front everyone stares

But why do they care? Like there's feelings in chairs

Stuck for 3 hours until I get there

 

My eyes, eyes, eyes are not dry, dry, dry

As I realize-lize-lize

That in a few minutes this train will be gone

Sighs, sighs, sighs, city flies, flies, flies

Wonder why, why, why

Would anyone want to leave where I come from?

 

I'm torn on the platform

I'm torn on the platform

I'm torn on the platform

 

It's 1:58, wish that I had been late

And missed the train and given them an excuse

But what is the use? I've less slack than a noose

Do or die, stay or go, what should I choose?

 

'Cause my eyes, eyes, eyes are not dry, dry, dry

As I realize-lize-lize

That in a few minutes this train will be gone

Sighs, sighs, sighs, city flies, flies, flies

Wonder why, why, why

Would anyone want to leave where I come from?

 

I'm torn on the platform

I'm torn on the platform

I'm torn on the platform

 

Like in a film the motion starts to slow

As the beeping carriage doors begin to close

Momentarily I'm standing froze

Then I jump between the gap, land on the platform flat

 

I'm not torn on the platform

I'm torn on the platform

I'm torn on the platform
