[Intro] [Verse 1] The room is a crush and the stage is too small I came with the lads and I can't see the wall Then I saw you laughing in a coat by the door And the set had a reason I didn't have before [Pre-Chorus] I talk to my shoes through a whole first song If I wait any longer, the nerve will be gone [Chorus] Across the packed hall Across the packed hall I'll make my way over if the floor lets me through I've been watching the set just to look back at you Across the packed hall Across the packed hall [Verse 2] Your friend says something and you cover your grin The singer leans in and the chorus kicks in I take one step forward, I take one step more By the last number I am halfway to the floor [Pre-Chorus] I talk to my shoes through a whole first song If I wait any longer, the nerve will be gone [Chorus] Across the packed hall Across the packed hall I'll make my way over if the floor lets me through I've been watching the set just to look back at you Across the packed hall Across the packed hall [Guitar Break] [Bridge] If the last song's starting, that's my only chance I'll say my name plainly and I'll ask you to dance [Final Chorus] Across the packed hall Across the packed hall I'll make my way over if the floor lets me through I've been watching the set just to look back at you Across the packed hall Across the packed hall [Outro] [End]
