The Thrill of Thirty Seconds

It was five-past the hour when you said your train was due But in the spirit of the evening I arrived on fifty-two I was going through my inbox on a regular basis And occasionally scanning through all the rush-hour faces I wondered down the platform but I could not see a sign I looked-up at the clock and it was only fifty-nine Just you and me together, that's the way it needs to be I'm standing here, waiting for you, on Platform 23 It feels like time is slowing down For our secret rendezvous in town As anticipation beckons I start counting-down the seconds My heart beats fast but the clock ticks slowly You could be my one and only As anticipation beckons I've felt the thrill of thirty seconds Felt the thrill... of thirty seconds It almost seems too perfect as you glide along the floor I looked for imperfections and loved everything I saw I'd never felt so scared, infatuated or excited I felt just like a school-boy, and for some reason I liked it I wondered down the platform, but I could not see a sign I looked-up at the clock, and it was only fifty-nine Just you and me together, that's the way it's gonna be I'm standing here, waiting for you, on Platform 23 It feels like time is slowing down For our secret rendezvous in town As anticipation beckons I start counting-down the seconds My heart beats fast but the clock ticks slowly You could be my one and only As anticipation beckons I've felt the thrill of thirty seconds Felt the thrill... of thirty seconds And I could not seem to settle, so I tried to make a call And then I suddenly remembered, what you'd written on my wall It wasn't even special, just the fact that it was you And the fact that we were meeting, was just too good to be true... It feels like time is slowing down Ffor our secret rendezvous in town As anticipation beckons I start counting-down the seconds My heart beats fast but the clock ticks slowly You could be my one and only As anticipation beckons I've felt the thrill of thirty seconds Felt the thrill... of thirty seconds It feels like time is slowing down Ffor our secret rendezvous in town As anticipation beckons I start counting-down the seconds My heart beats fast but the clock ticks slowly You could be my one and only As anticipation beckons I've felt the thrill of thirty seconds Felt the thrill... of thirty seconds Felt the thrill... of thirty seconds Felt the thrill... of thirty seconds Felt the thrill... of thirty seconds
