Arkells - 11:11 Lyrics

You were all done up, but it wasn't for me
You were up at the front, t-tapping your feet
I was back at the bar; you had your eyes on the stage
You had an "x" on your hand to tell em' your age

I didn't put my money on it, but I was hoping that you would be here
If I was something that you ever wanted, I'm all ears, I'm all ears

You made a wish at 11: 11
I held your hips at 12: 34
There was a kiss just waiting to happen
A cab was calling outside the door
Oooooohhhhhh
I knew from the beginning
It was you from the beginning

Excuses disguised all the ones before
I'd be convincing myself they could be something more
I said "If you go home and get on the phone
And tell your girlfriends about me
I'll go home and sleep on my own
And dream of a girl named Lonnie"

I couldn't hold a candle to you, but you were glowing in the dark
I was nervous just standing with you, you were glowing in the dark

You made a wish at 11: 11
I held your hips at 12: 34
There was a kiss just waiting to happen
A cab was calling outside the door
Oooooohhhhhh
I knew from the beginning
It was you from the beginning

And you weren't even trying
Your dirty blonde hair had me going wild
You were a little bit shy then
There's no denying something so true

You made a wish at 11: 11
I held your hips at 12: 34
There was a kiss just waiting to happen
A cab was calling outside the door
Oooooohhhhhh
I knew from the beginning
It was you from the beginning
