lyrics

Our hands touch on a subway train
Holding on as we accelerate
I think I sense some chemistry
I don't know what stop that you'll take
But every door that opens up
Could also be closing for me

I've been dreaming of
Meeting someone in a place
That's not a bar or club
Just never know quite what to say
And I know that I've got maybe a stop or two
Until I've missed my chance with you

The worst part's not when it's too late
It's when there's still time but I know
That I won't do anything
Maybe it's all just in my head
But you seem to be looking this way
And you're not wearing a ring

I've been dreaming of
Meeting someone in a place
That's not a bar or club
Just never know quite what to say
And I know that I've got maybe a stop or two
Until I've missed my chance with you

I tell myself that it's OK
I'll think of something to say some other day
To someone else on this commute
And that there are so many people around me
Eventually, I'm bound to find somebody
But what it there's no one quite like you?

I've been dreaming of
Meeting someone in a place
That's not a bar or club
Just never know quite what to say
And I know that I've got maybe a stop or two
Until I've missed my chance with you
