07 - Echoes in the neon

Echoes in the neon, calling out my name, Every flicker's a memory, every glow's the same. Echoes in the neon, I can't turn away, City lights are burning on the night I couldn't stay. Rain on the pavement, taillights in the red, A thousand lonely windows, a thousand things unsaid. I'm walking through the crowd but I'm miles away, Chasing down a shadow of a better yesterday. And the sign above the diner says "Open all night," But nobody's home inside the light. Echoes in the neon, calling out my name, Every flicker's a memory, every glow's the same. Echoes in the neon, I can't turn away, City lights are burning on the night I couldn't stay. Music from a basement bar, a saxophone cries, Your perfume in a stranger passing by. I turn around, but you're not there, Just the neon and the empty air. And the street keeps whispering "Open all night," But nobody's home inside the light. Echoes in the neon, calling out my name, Every flicker's a memory, every glow's the same. Echoes in the neon, I can't turn away, City lights are burning on the night I couldn't stay. (Oh-oh-oh... oh-oh-oh...) Some cities never sleep, And some hearts never do. Every night I'm falling deeper Into every shade of neon blue. (Oh-oh-oh... oh-oh-oh...) Echoes in the neon, calling out my name, Every flicker's a memory, every glow's the same. Echoes in the neon, I can't turn away, City lights are burning on the night I couldn't stay. Echoes in the neon... (neon... neon...) Calling out my name. (name... name... name...)
