| Did you think I was sleeping |
| Face pressed up against a window |
| Body rocking to a southbound rhythm |
| Just closed my eyes |
| Faking sleep to listen |
| Holding the light of the world at bay |
| Then you kiss me |
| Though the train was crammed in |
| To wake me with your lips |
| As I slipped away |
| Put your face up close to mine |
| Whispered |
| And your perfume was the best thing |
| That happened all day |
| I didn’t open my eyes |
| I didn’t see the car |
| I heard the tyres on the blacktop |
| Waiting for the kids |
| All the trees in the park |
| Stood up and started dancing |
| Naked and excited |
| And all the billboards on the bus |
| They shouted |
| Better start running |
| Salvation is coming |
| I just went limp |
| And when the impact never came |
| Everything went quiet |
| All the trees stopped their dancing |
| And I started to grin |
| And then you kissed me |
| Although the drivers were watching |
| Held me with your lips |
| Like I was slipping away |
| Put your face up close to mine |
| And whisper… |
| And your perfume was the best thing |
| That happened all day |
| And your perfume was the best thing |
| That happened all day |
| Holding the light of the world at bay |
| Holding the light of the world at bay |
