I Met You on a Platform

كلمات الأغنية

[Verse 1] You had a paper cup and a suitcase by your feet I was watching the departures flicker over Main Street You asked me if the northbound train was running late I said, “I hope it is,” then smiled at my own mistake [Pre-Chorus] The whole world moved around us But somehow we stood still One little hello, and I knew I wanted something real [Chorus] I met you on a platform, just a minute before the train Your coat was caught in autumn wind, your eyes were saying stay Now every road I take, every place I’m headed through Feels like it’s leading back to you If forever has a doorway, let me walk in holding on You were a stranger in the station; now you feel like home I met you on a platform, and I still can’t believe The man I want to call mine forever met me there that evening [Verse 2] We missed that train together, found a diner down the way You told me ’bout your hometown; I forgot what I would say The waitress brought the coffee, rain tapped out against the glass And somewhere between your laugh and mine, the hours hurried past [Pre-Chorus] You saved my number in your phone I saved the ticket stub Funny how one little detour Can turn into a love [Chorus] I met you on a platform, just a minute before the train Your coat was caught in autumn wind, your eyes were saying stay Now every road I take, every place I’m headed through Feels like it’s leading back to you If forever has a doorway, let me walk in holding on You were a stranger in the station; now you feel like home I met you on a platform, and I still can’t believe The man I want to call mine forever met me there that evening [Bridge] Someday we’ll tell the story With a picture on the wall How I almost let that train leave And you almost missed it all [Final Chorus] I met you on a platform, just a minute before the train Your hand found mine beneath the clock, and nothing felt the same Now every road I take, every place I’m headed through Feels like it’s leading back to you If forever has a doorway, I’ll be walking there with you You were a stranger in the station; now my whole heart knows it’s true I met you on a platform, and I still can’t believe The man I want to call mine forever met me there that evening [Outro] That evening, that platform And the life I found with you
