Express Songtext
von 52nd Street

Excuse me, miss, is this seat taken?
Uh, no, I don′t think so
Well, would you mind if I sat here?
No, go ahead, it's okay with me
Thank you

I was alone, I didn′t care, now this guy is sitting there
I was alone, I didn't care, now this guy is sitting there
I was alone, I didn't care, now this guy is sitting there
I was alone, I didn′t care, now this guy is sitting there


Here I am, on this express train, minding my own business
Read my magazine, enjoying my glass of cold Bacardi
Interrupted by this well-spoken guy
My eyes were fixed on him, was the focus of my daydream

Excuse me, would you like a cigarette?
Okay
Oh, by the way, my name′s Marcus
Oh, um, I'm Michelle
Pleased to meet you

I was alone, I didn′t care, now this guy is sitting there
I was alone, I didn't care, now this guy is sitting there
I was alone, I didn′t care, now this guy is sitting there
I was alone, I didn't care, now this guy is sitting there


Here I was, on this express train, minding my own business
In walked this guy, into my life
Style, sophistication, this guy has dedication
He says, "You know it, yes, he′s gonna be my man"
