Last Train To London

Electric Light Orchestra

It was 9:29...

9:29, back street, big city

The sun was going down

There was music all around

It felt so right.



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 had to stay



CHORUS:

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.



It was one of those nights

One of those nights

When you feel the fire burning

Everybody was there

Everybody to share

It was so right.



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 had to stay.



REPEAT CHORUS



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.



REPEAT CHORUS



But I really want tonight to last forever

I really want to be with you

Let the music play on down the line tonight.
