Black coffee in a heavy cup
The morning sun is waking up
I flip the grill and fry the eggs
The tired city walks on legs
Electric pink and garden green
The strangest sight I've ever seen
A humming wire a broken pane
Keeping flowers safe from rain
You wipe the counter with a rag
The midnight hours start to lag
A cracked window in the breeze
Bringing all the vines to knees
Electric pink and garden green
The strangest sight I've ever seen
A humming wire a broken pane
Keeping flowers safe from rain
The regulars all take their seat
Avoiding all the rainy street
We watch the buzzing light above
A plastic kind of urban love
Electric pink and garden green
The strangest sight I've ever seen
A humming wire a broken pane
Keeping flowers safe from rain
The steam is rising from the pot
The parking lot is smelling hot
You lean against the sliding door
I cannot take it anymore
One spark of gold in the grey
Chasing all the cold away
Hold on tight to the humming wire
Lighting up a hidden fire
The diner clock is ticking slow
We watch the jagged petals grow
A little slice of jungle heat
Right beside the concrete beat
Electric pink and garden green
The strangest sight I've ever seen
A humming wire a broken pane
Keeping flowers safe from rain
Just a little glow in the dark
Keep the magic, keep the spark
(Electric glow)
(Yeah, the garden glow)
