I've been waiting in this station, for what seems like a year
It's midday now, but I don't trust the clocks they have in here
And maybe 'round the corner you'll be stepping off that bus
And then I will remember what it feels like to be us
And now the fog is creeping 'round the factories and farms
I hope to hell you make it to assail me with your charms
'Cause all I want to do now babe, is hold you in my arms
So put your bags beside me, baby, right here in the road
Put 'em down, and lighten up the load
Put 'em down and lighten up the load
I wonder how you'll look at me, after all this time
I wonder how much things have rearranged within my mind
'Cause I'll be so relieved to see you stepping off that bus
'Cause then I will remember what it feels like to be us
Will you stand here smiling with your hands upon your hips
Wearing the same lipstick I last tasted on your lips?
'Cause I just want you right now, baby at my fingertips
So put your bags beside me, baby, right here in the road
Put 'em down and lighten up the load
Put 'em down and lighten up the load
If what you're carrying is as heavy as my heart
You'll need a weeks recovery here within my arms
So put your bags beside me baby, right here in the road
Put 'em down and lighten up the load
♪
So as I'm waiting in this station, feeling famished and afraid
The 8:15 from London comes in eight minutes delayed
And as I'm searching for your features
I'm rehearsing what I'll say
Put your bags beside me, baby, right here in the road
Put 'em down and lighten up the load
Put 'em down and lighten up the load
The load, the load
Ooh, yeah
