Torn on the Platform Songtext
von Jack Peñate

Once more just before I′m leaving
Torn on the platform
Once more just before I'm leaving
Torn on the platform

′Cause I'll miss you and I love you
And I know this is over just for now
'Cause I miss you, ohh, 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
50p 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
Why do they care, like there′s feelings in chairs
Trapped for 3 hours until I get there


'Cause my
Eyes, eyes, eyes
Are not
Dry, dry, dry
As I
Realise, lise, lise
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?

Torn on the platform
Torn on the platform
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 shall I choose?


′Cause my
Eyes, eyes, eyes
Are not
Dry, dry, dry
As I
Realise, lise, lise
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?

Torn on the platform
Torn on the platform
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
Torn on the platform
Torn on the platform
