Lyrics
Throw my ticket out the window,
Rejecting plans to leave abruptly, indicating a change of mind.
Throw my suitcase out there, too,
Abandoning belongings, signifying a commitment to stay.
Throw my troubles out the door,
Discarding problems or worries, embracing a carefree attitude.
I don't need them any more
Expressing a newfound liberation from past concerns.
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
Declaring the decision to spend the night together.
I should have left this town this morning
Regretting not leaving earlier due to emotional attachment.
But it was more than I could do.
Highlighting the difficulty in parting ways.
Oh, your love comes on so strong
Emphasizing the intensity of affection received.
And I've waited all day long
Anticipation for the awaited moment together.
For tonight when I'll be staying here with you.
Anxiously waiting for the evening to stay together.
Is it really any wonder
Questioning the surprise of receiving love from a stranger.
The love that a stranger might receive.
Recognition of affection from an unfamiliar person.
You cast your spell and I went under,
Feeling captivated or entranced by the affection.
I find it so difficult to leave.
Expressing difficulty in leaving due to the strong emotional connection.
I can hear that whistle blowin',
Noticing departure signals, like a train whistle.
I see that stationmaster, too,
Observing the authority figure at the train station.
If there's a poor boy on the street,
Willingness to sacrifice own comforts for others.
Then let him have my seat
Offering a seat to someone in need due to the decision to stay.
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
Reiterating the commitment to spend the night together.
Throw my ticket out the window,
Repeating the earlier act of rejecting departure.
Throw my suitcase out there, too,
Reaffirming the abandonment of belongings to reinforce the decision to stay.
Throw my troubles out the door,
Emphasizing the abandonment of worries, reflecting a carefree state of mind.
I don't need them any more
Expressing freedom from past concerns, reaffirming the decision to stay.
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
Final confirmation of the intent to spend the night together.
