Freezing Monday morning
Bb C Am7 Dm
She is waiting for her train to come
Am Gm Am Gm
I brush past her, smell her perfume
Bb C Am7 Dm
Watch her hair move as she turns to go
C Bb
She doesn't know I exist
Am7 Gm7
I'm gonna keep it like this
F Am7 Eb
I'm not gonna take any risks this time

She's not like the others
Bb C Am7 Dm
With their papers and their headphones on
Am Gm Am Gm
She reads novels by French authors
Bb C Am7 Dm
With loose morals, she can do no wrong
C Bb
I wouldn't say I'm obsessed
Am7 Gm7
I don't wanna see her undressed
