Verse 1 At King’s Cross Station, the world was passin’ by, I held my ticket tighter, and I tried to hide my eyes. But a family full of laughter said, “Just run and don’t look back,” I found my way to magic down a hidden railroad track. Chorus Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, whistle blowin’ loud, Steam and smoke a-dancin’, rollin’ through the crowd. A red train waits to take me to the place my heart adores, Bound for Hogwarts magic, from Platform Nine and Three-Quarters. Verse 2 I met a boy with freckles, I met a girl with books, They smiled like the sunlight, with kind and gentle looks. We shared a cart of candy, we shared a laugh or two, And I knew I found my people, my forever crew. Verse 3 That whistle keeps on howlin’, the wheels begin to turn, Every mile we’re travelin’, there’s so much left to learn. I’m leavin’ all the sorrow, I’m leavin’ all the pain, Ridin’ toward a future where my name won’t sound the same. Chorus Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, whistle blowin’ loud, Steam and smoke a-dancin’, rollin’ through the crowd. A red train waits to take me to the place my heart adores, Bound for Hogwarts magic, from Platform Nine and Three-Quarters. Verse 4 Now the castle’s glowin’, through the Scottish night, And my heart is poundin’ with a brand-new light. From shadows into sunshine, from sorrow into flame, On that iron-bound highway, the world has changed. Bridge Some doors you crash right through ‘em, some walls just disappear, But sometimes you just run ahead, and life turns clear. Final Chorus Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, whistle blowin’ loud, Steam and smoke a-dancin’, rollin’ through the crowd. A red train waits to take me to the place my heart adores, Bound for Hogwarts magic, from Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.
