Bedouin Soundclash - Nico On The Night Train lyrics

rate me

Thought I saw you, Nico

From the tram's back window

Late on last Thursday night

Underneath the street light

From the tram it looked like

You'd been there the whole night

A whisper in the midnight

That vanishes with daylight

December's cold was calling

And the snow was falling

I thought as I rode back home

"Why was she all alone? "

Nico, you know

I'm not your man, I know that

You can take a stand

On a midnight night tram

A couple weeks slipped us past

On the tram near Dundas

She got on at that stop

And as she sat down I thought

"A lot of friends were talking

About Nico's late night walking

Lately you've been acting funny

Where'd you get that money? "

Nico, you know

I'm not your man, I know that

You can take a stand

On a midnight night tram

I moved a few seats over

And as I brushed her shoulder

She said, "Don't I know you?

Yeah, we had friends in high school! "

And as my stop got closer

I turned my back towards her

I don't know why I did that

I wish I had told her that

Nico, you know

I'm not your man, I know that

You can take a stand

On a midnight night tram
