Waiting on the clock

I was just a boy and you were still a girl In the reckless freedom of our newfound world I made you a tape of all my favourite tunes One headphone for me and one headphone for you And each night, i'd go working in the cafe All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say Midnight, i'd go running round to worcester place Heart thumping as i climb the spiral staircase Your college room was freezing in that winter break And so we stayed in bed for two whole nights and days You said you'd eat my goldfish you were so hungry So on our shaking knees we went to try sushi And each night, i went working in the cafe All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say Midnight, i'd go running round to worcester place Heart thumping as i climb the spiral staircase And each night, i'd go working in the cafe All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say Midnight, i'd go running round to worcester place Heart thumping as i climb the spiral staircase Half twelve, and i'm standing in your doorway Half-scared, wondering what the hell you're gonna say Half-drunk, so i'm gonna tell you anyway
