On A Train
Francis and the Lights Lyrics

It was 9:29, 9:29 big street, big city
The singer remembers the exact time and location where he experienced this magical moment.

The sun was going down, there was music all around
The sun setting and music all around created the perfect atmosphere.

It felt so right
The singer knew that he was exactly where he was supposed to be.

It was one of those nights
The singer describes a night that he will always remember.

One of those nights when you feel the world stop turning
The singer feels like everything else in the world stopped and he was completely in the moment.

You were standing there, there was music in the air
The person he was with and the music they were both listening to together made the moment unforgettable.

I should have been away
The singer had other plans, but was too captivated by the moment to leave.

But I knew I'd have to stay
He knew he couldn't leave because he didn't want the moment to end.

Last train to London, just heading out
The last train of the night was leaving, but the singer wasn't ready for the night to be over.

Last train to London, just leaving town
The train was departing and taking everyone else with it.

But I really want tonight to last forever
The singer wishes this moment could last forever because he's having the time of his life.

I really wanna be with you
The singer desires to be with the person he is sharing this incredible moment with.

Let the music play on down the line tonight
He hopes the music will continue to play and make the night even more special.

Everybody was there
The party was in full swing and everyone was enjoying themselves.

Everybody to share
The singer was happy to have so many people to share this amazing night with.

There you were on your own
The singer notices someone who stands out from the crowd and is on their own.

Looking like you were the only one around
The person he is talking to looks like they are lost in their own world and the only one around.

I had to be with you
The singer is drawn to this person and feels like he has to be with them in that moment.

Nothing else that I could do
The singer was so captivated by this person and the moment that he couldn't think of doing anything else.

Underneath a starry sky
The night was beautiful and romantic with the stars shining above.

Time was still but hours must really have rushed by
The moment felt timeless, but in reality, hours must have passed without them realizing.

I didn't realize but love was in your eyes
The singer didn't realize until later that love was in the eyes of the person he was with.

I really should have gone
The singer regrets not leaving earlier and wonders what could have happened if they had.

But love went on and on
Even though the night ended, the love and memories from that moment continued.

But I really want tonight to last forever
The singer repeats this line to emphasize how much he never wanted the night to end.

I really wanna be with you
He expresses his desire to be with the person who made the night so special one more time.

Let the music play on down the line tonight
The singer calls for the music to continue to play and the night to be remembered forever.
