[Intro] Green Amber Red Green again [Verse 1] White lines running under the wheels Blue light sliding over the glass Corner shop, bus stop, somebody waving Already gone by the time I look back Neon bleeding into the rain Taxi turning out of the lane Windows flicker, floor after floor Then the tunnel swallows it all [Pre-Chorus] Down the ramp Under the lights Out the other side [Chorus] City in streaks Red, blue, white Breaking apart in the passenger side Street after street Light after light Nothing but motion carrying the night No destination calling my name No need to know where this road will end City in streaks Keep it moving Turn and begin again [Verse 2] Green reflection across the hood Three empty lanes where the traffic stood A bicycle chained to a silver rail Steam from a doorway, gone in the tail Billboard flashes across my face Yellow windows, underground bass Brake lights scatter over the rain Then everything starts moving again [Pre-Chorus] Round the block Across the bridge Back into the glow [Chorus] City in streaks Red, blue, white Breaking apart in the passenger side Street after street Light after light Nothing but motion carrying the night No destination calling my name No need to know where this road will end City in streaks Keep it moving Turn and begin again [Bridge] For three seconds Everything turns red The engine waits The wipers count One Two Three Green And the whole city moves [Final Chorus] City in streaks Red, blue, white Glass full of colour, asphalt full of light Street after street Turn after turn Every reflection replaced by the next No destination calling my name No reason needed, nothing to explain City in streaks Keep it moving Round and around again [Outro] Green Amber Red Green again
