Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was 9-29
9-29 back street big city
The sun was going down, there was music all around
It felt so right
[Verse 2]
It was one of those nights
One of those nights when you feel the world stop turnin'
You were standing there, there was music in the air
I should have been away, but I knew I'd have to stay
[Verse 3]
Last train to London
Just headin' out
Last train to London
Just leavin' town
[Verse 4]
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you
Let the music play on down the line tonight
[Verse 5]
It was one of those nights
One of those nights when you feel the fire is burnin'
Everybody was there, everybody to share
It was so right
[Verse 6]
There you were on your own
Lookin' like you were the only one around
I had to be with you, nothin' else that I could do
I should have been away, but I knew I'd have to stay
[Verse 7]
Last train to London
Just headin' out
Last train to London
Just leavin' town
[Verse 8]
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you
Let the music play on down the line tonight
[Verse 9]
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
[Verse 10]
Last train to London
Just headin' out
Last train to London
Just leavin' town
[Verse 11]
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you
Let the music play on down the line tonight
[Verse 12]
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you
Let the music play on down the line tonight
