Northern Line

Late at night in the city
I was never lost, I was never lost
And I wonder, do I wanna go back?
3 a.m. in the city, there's a friend of mine on the Northern Line
And I wonder if I wanna go back?

I was waitin' for a conversation
It was never long, it was never long
Walls are soakin' with the condensation
The familiar throng and a '80s song

Late at night in the city when I'm tongue-tied, and I'm willin'
And I wonder if I wanna go back?
If I wanna go back?
(Oh)

Formed a band in the city
The old piano charms the Southampton Arms
In the corner where singin' numbs the pain
I fell in love in the city so many years ago at an indie show
Now I'm older, I still feel the same

I was waitin' for a conversation
It was never long, it was never long
When it's time to take this to the pavement
Did we become the faces we stand among?

Late at night in the city when I'm tongue-tied, and I'm willin'
And I wonder if I wanna go back?
If I wanna go back?
(Oh)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Oh)

I was waitin' for a conversation
It was never long, it was never long
I'm alone on an empty station
Like the singer in that '80s song

Late at night in the city
When I'm tongue-tied and I'm willin'
And I wonder if I wanna go back?
If I wanna go back?

(Ooh)
(Oh)
(Ooh, oh, oh, ah)
