It was New Cross Station, I was going on home
Saw you get your ticket, standing on your own.
Here come the train about 02:44
I couldnt get a smoker, you took another car.

Yeah, the end of the line, we both had to change,
And youre standing right behind me,
Im a feeling kinda strange.
We got to Mile End Road, my heart skipped a beat,
Standing right behind me, Im a shakin in my seat.
3-4 minutes and the train comes through,
Im ridin on the Central, Im a-lookin at you.

Woman on the eastbound train,
Sometimes I wanna see you again.

Now I couldnt read a paper, you couldnt read a book,
Kept on taking me another look,
You got off the train, you never looked behind
I tried, but I cant get you out of my mind.

Woman on the eastbound train,
Sometimes I wanna see you again.

Well I got one more thing I wanna say before I go
If you get the message on the radio
You can write a letter, get in touch with me,
Leave your number with the company, yeah.

Woman on the eastbound train,
Sometimes I wanna see you again.
