Track Insight / Lyrics
I'm just a greenhouse gardener man
Twenty-four hour laundromat's my stand
High and dry while rain comes down
Won't let me out, turning me around
Hot wax, lint and fabric scent
Repeats of lives, I can relate
Worn-out machines, they never sleep
Like I do, wishing the dawn would creep
Coins I feed, cycles I spin
Always the same, till my hands give in
Stitched seams of shirts and jeans
Memories leak through, like these tears that keen
Rainswept and soaked, neon lights ablaze
In this room I find my state
Neon rainswept, city's alive tonight
In this laundromat, with you by my side
Washing the world, with every spin and sway
Neon rainswept, we'll find our place in this gray
When the world is wet, and I'm feeling low
Detergent's hum, a lullaby to know
Each garment clean, a story untold
Frayed edges, once worn, now renewed and bold
Steam rises high, a foggy veil
I close my eyes, this laundry impale
In dream's embrace, my heart begins to mend
As I spin with the rhythm of the night's end
Neon rainswept, city's alive tonight
In this laundromat, with you by my side
Washing the world, with every spin and sway
Neon rainswept, we'll find our place in this gray
Machines hum, in syncopated beat
The neon's pulse, a rhythm to repeat
With each wash, a piece of my soul
Tires, frayed, worn, but still in control
This lonely space, where I find my home
Here, the city's pulse, it isn't far from home
Through the rain, I glimpse your face
In this neon hive, we occupy our place
In the bustle of this endless night
We're just two souls, in a neon light
Seeking shelter, warmth, and reprieve
In the hum of the machines, our hearts can breathe
Neon rainswept, city's alive tonight
In this laundromat, with you by my side
Washing the world, with every spin and sway
Neon rainswept, we'll find our place in this gray
Rain subsides, the dawn's early light
I dry my hands, and bid the night adieu
Though the world's awake, I'll stay awhile longer
In this neon sanctuary, our hearts still merge
Neon rainswept, the city's alive
In this laundromat, our love will thrive.
