Lyrics
You were all done up
But it wasn't for me
You were up at the front
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 them 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
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I knew from the beginning
Oh, oh, oh, oh, it was you from the beginning
Excuses disguised
All the ones before
I'd been 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 (hey)
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
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I knew from the beginning
Oh, oh, oh, oh, it was you from the beginning (hey)
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
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I knew from the beginning
Oh, oh, oh, oh, it was you from the beginning (hey)
