Eight Fifteen

Verse 1

Fingerpicked guitar and voice

Every morning on the eight fifteen you take the window seatSame green book, like you're scared to reach the endYou tap your coffee lid three times before you sipI learned every little habit of a girl I've never metAnd I've never said a word

Pre-Chorus

I've rehearsed a hundred hellosThen I watch my stop go by

Chorus

Eight fifteen, same seat, same youSame me too scared to say itTomorrow I'll say somethingEight fifteen, same seat, same you

Verse 2

Yesterday you looked up and you almost caught me staringThen you smiled like you smile at the last pageAnd the whole train tilted and I missed my stop againI'm gonna lose my job over a girl I haven't met

Pre-Chorus

I've rehearsed a hundred hellosThen I watch my stop go by

Chorus

Piano and strings enter

Eight fifteen, same seat, same youSame me too scared to say itTomorrow I'll say somethingEight fifteen, same seat, same you

Bridge

Voice opening up, guitar alone

This morning I sat down beside youAnd you said I hoped you would

Final Chorus

Full band, gritty soaring belt

Eight fifteen, same seat, same youSame me too scared to say itTomorrow I'll say somethingEight fifteen, same seat, same youEight fifteen, same seat, same youSame me too scared to say itToday I'll say somethingEight fifteen, same seat, same you
