Verse
Doors slide open, Camden's breathing steam
Your jacket's silver static under sodium beam
Bassline ticking like a pulse in my chest
Sixteen carriage windows, you're the only one I check
Elbows brush at Highbury, no words yet
Just a half-smile through the crowd we won't forget
Track skips forward, so does my heart
Same direction, only strangers at the start
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the floor shake under London's skin
Two more stops and I don't know where to begin
Say something before the tannoy interrupts
This whole carriage humming like it's had enough
Chorus
Meet me at 2AM on the Overground
Where the lights blur soft and the bass wraps around
Nobody's rushing, the night's holding still
Just your hand near mine on the window sill
2AM on the Overground
Verse
Dalston Junction, you shift your feet
Phone lights flicker down our empty seat
I count the stations like a rosary of chance
Hackney, Homerton, one more glance
You mouth the words to the tune leaking through my ear
Static kiss of a chorus we both hold dear
Rain runs sideways on the glass tonight
Turns the platform gold in the passing light
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the floor shake under London's skin
Two more stops and I don't know where to begin
Say something before the tannoy interrupts
This whole carriage humming like it's had enough
Chorus
Meet me at 2AM on the Overground
Where the lights blur soft and the bass wraps around
Nobody's rushing, the night's holding still
Just your hand near mine on the window sill
2AM on the Overground
Bridge
Maybe it's the doors that keep us close
Maybe it's the song nobody chose
Either way I'm staying till the end of the line
Even if it's only for a moment in time
Chorus
Meet me at 2AM on the Overground
Where the lights blur soft and the bass wraps around
Nobody's rushing, the night's holding still
Just your hand near mine on the window sill
2AM on the Overground
