Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Your bag is by the door and the street is wet
We took the long way and we're early yet
I wiped the cold bench off with my sleeve for you
Two of us in the dark glass, looking through

[Pre-Chorus]
The board up there says eleven fifty-two
And there's one thing I never told you

[Chorus]
I rode past my stop every night this year
Four extra stations just to keep you near
Not to make you stay, I want you to go
I rode past my stop, and now you know

[Verse 2]
There's a ticket in my coat gone soft as cloth
I've kept it since the first night that we talked
You'd start a sentence somewhere near the bridge
And I would stay on board to hear the end of it

[Pre-Chorus]
I'd walk home forty minutes in the cold
Grinning like a kid, and never told

[Chorus]
I rode past my stop every night this year
Four extra stations just to keep you near
Not to make you stay, I want you to go
I rode past my stop, and now you know

[Bridge]
I'm not going to ask you for a thing
No promise and no phone call in the spring
The doors will chime twice and that's alright
I just wanted you to carry one true thing tonight

[Final Chorus]
I rode past my stop every night this year
Four extra stations just to keep you near
Take the window seat and watch the city go
I rode past my stop, and now you know

[Outro]
And now you know
And now you know
