Metro Lyrics by NTHN (UK)

2022

Touched down on Friday and I'm already on my way home
Couple hours 'til my flight leaves
Handing back my keys 'cause it's time to go
One last night in the city
About to leave it all behind
Bags packed, passport, I was ready
But with only one look, she changed my mind
She stands out in a city where most blend in
Know it's not my place so I'm pretending
That I don't feel more than I intended to
Wish that I could tell her but I'm trying to play it cool
So I'm keeping my composure
As the end of the night draws closer
But it's hard not saying what I really feel
Even though I know I'm not supposed to
Something 'bout the way she looked that evening
Lights low, about seven degrees and
I'm trying not to show what I see in her
And I know I've not been here long
But it feels like it's been a while
Getting harder for me to keep track of time
Holding onto the night 'cause I didn't wanna let go
Late for my flight, got me running through the metro
Still running on my mind
I was ready to leave now all I want is to rewind
Go back a couple days
Do it all again
Or better yet, a couple months back to when I could have said
What I was holding back but now it's too late
I don't know when I last felt this way, yeah
But I can't stop thinking how I miss that day
Two weeks have passed and it seems this feeling's lasting
Tryna keep distracted
Looking for a way to move past it
Set back every time I see her name
But I know I should let things lie
Conversations lasting for days but still I try not to reply 'cause
She seems happy in her own life
And I don't wanna get in the way
I just wanna stay friends but I won't lie
Right now, no one makes me feel the same
I only ever see her in her stories
And although we still talk like before we met
Feelings changed and I couldn't ignore it
'Cause even if I tried to forget
I'd be still thinking back to that evening
And the look that we exchanged when I was leaving
While I was trying not to show what I see in her
'Cause I didn't wanna get things wrong
And it hasn't even been a while
But I can't stop thinking 'bout the last time
'Cause I was caught off guard
I'll be ready for the next though
Straight off the flight
I'll be running to the metro
'Cause she's still on my mind
And maybe when the timing's right
I'll be back someday
Do it all again
Or better yet, I'll tell her everything I wish I'd have said
When I was holding back
But now it's too late
And I don't know when I last felt this way, yeah
But I can't stop thinking how I miss that day
