Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was 9:29
9:29, Mack 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 turning
You were standing there
There was music in the air
I should have been away
But I knew I have to say
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
It was one of those nights
One of those nights when you feel the fire's burning
Everybody was there
Everybody to share
It felt so right
[Verse 5]
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'd have to say
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
Underneath the starry sky
Time was still, but ours 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 oh
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really want to be with you
Let the music play on down the line tonight
