[Verse 1]

Scratching on the surface

Yeah the walls are paper thin

I can hear the party going

Do I ask if I can join in?

Things were looking up but now

You won’t look me in the eye

Face down in bright lights till sunrise


[Chorus]

One, two seconds till I’m locked into

The station of your mind

All the time

And how I wonder if I’ll ever get to

To hold your hand in mine

La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la


[Verse 2]

I’m thinking of a number

That’s somewhere in between

A hundred and quarter

I caught it in a dream

You can write a message

To anyone you please

Place an order from the Chinese

For a standing white neon tree


[Chorus]

One, two seconds till I’m locked into

The station of your mind

All the time

How I wonder if I’ll ever get to

To hold your hand in mine

La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la, la la la la


[Chorus]

One, two seconds till I’m locked into

The station of your mind

All the time

How I wonder if I’ll ever get the chance to call you mine

La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la, la la la la
