Neon Afterglow – Blackeyes (Tekst)

Neon spills across your coat
I breathe and count to two
Rain turns every crosswalk
Into postcards of us too
The night pretends we're fine
The taxi lights agree
I say I'm moving on
My feet don't follow me
I touch the window
Warm and cold your name appears
That lets me go
Neon afterglow still painting you on me
I won't but stay below
The light we used to be
Love already closed the show
I'm bowing anyway
Under the neon afterglow
That never fades away
Umbrella ribs keep tight,
A heartbeat out of tune
I'm talking to the street
Like it can answer soon
We were a headline blur,
A midnight centerfold
I keep the clipping in my chest
The ink will not grow old
If down is honest
Let it come till then
I dance with what we've done
Neon afterglow Still color in the rain
I move inside the music
Of your leaving like a stain
I know the way out Still I walk too slow
Caught in the neon afterlow
Still coloring in the rain
I'm still in your name
Neon afterglow
Don't fade away
