Testo Twenty Five To Midnight - Sting
Testo della canzone Twenty Five To Midnight (Sting), tratta dall'album Mercury Falling
The train I ride, don't be slow
If your whistle can blow
15 miles down the track
Tell them I'm coming back
Counting poles, counting sheep
Don't be slow, I won't weep
If your wheels on the line
Were to put me on time
Just a year to the day
Since I went upon my way
To seek my fortune and fame
Be a star, change my name
And that's it, more or less
'Til this midnight express
I know I can't be late
'Cause she said, she won't wait
She'll just go marry Jack
So there's no turning back
And it's 25 to midnight
And 15 miles of track
Band I had got a break
Just one chance we had to take
I told my girl I'd be back
Left her with my friend Jack
New York City for a spell
Things didn't turn out so well
Every dive that we played
We were lucky we got paid
Mr. Train driver, please
If your speed you increase
Every cent I have now
Will be yours this I vow
And that's it, more or less
'Til this midnight express (midnight express)
I know I can't be late
'Cause she said, she won't wait (said, she won't wait)
She'll just go marry Jack
So there's no turning back (no turning back)
And it's 25 to midnight
Or 15 miles of track
We called ourselves The Latino Lovers
Hawaiian shirts and top 40 covers
I didn't think I could sink this low
I'm drugs, I'm booze then all my dough
This isn't how it was meant to be
There's no such thing as a meal that's free
If I was ever to get out alive
I have to get some more time
Train I ride, don't be slow
If your whistle can blow
15 miles down the track
Tell them I'm coming back
And that's it, more or less
'Til this midnight express (midnight express)
I know I can't be late
'Cause she said, she won't wait (said, she won't wait)
She'll just go and marry Jack
So there's no turning back (no turning back)
And it's 25 to midnight
Or 15 miles of track
25 to midnight
Or 15 miles of track
