Last Train, Wet Umbrella, Walk Me Over

by Marcus Bell Quartet

“A late train, a wet umbrella and a joke nobody's told yet. A fun, flirty way to open the new record.”

Lyrics

The last train's late and the platform's wet
Two strangers and a joke we haven't told yet
You've got an umbrella with a broken rib
I've got a coat and a crooked grin

Walk me over, walk me over
Under your umbrella, I'll take the shoulder
Puddles on the platform, rain in my hair
I'd miss the last train if you'd just stay there
Walk me over, walk me over
Rain on the cobbles and a slow, slow stroll

You say the weather has a mind of its own
I say the rain's just singing a song
We dodge the puddles, we miss the bus
Who needs a schedule when there's us

Walk me over, walk me over
Under your umbrella, I'll take the shoulder
Puddles on the platform, rain in my hair
I'd miss the last train if you'd just stay there
Walk me over, walk me over
Rain on the cobbles and a slow, slow stroll

Streetlamp halo, yellow and wide
Your laugh bounces off the other side
The train pulls out and we don't care
Nobody's waiting, nobody's there

So here's my name and here's my street
Your broken umbrella and my two cold feet
The rain can fall as long as it likes
We've got all night

Walk me over, walk me over
Under your umbrella, I'll take the shoulder
Puddles on the platform, rain in my hair
I'd miss the last train if you'd just stay there
Walk me over, walk me over
Rain on the cobbles and a slow, slow stroll

Walk me over
Slow, slow stroll
