Track Insight / Lyrics
As you stand there in your attic room
Morning sun pours in like liquid gold
An old map of New York unfurled before you
Twist and turns of streets you've yet to know
Neon flickers awaken in your mind
Ghosts of city nights you'll leave behind
Time to trade in sleep for concrete and stone
Where the heat pumps through the pavement, calling you home
Into the neon, let the nights take you away
Riding subways, beneath the city's gray
Everything you need, it's hidden down there
You'll find yourself in the electric air
Cabs shrink in the sidewalks as you roam
Central Park a green oasis in the concrete home
A jazz melody played on a saxophone
Echoes of love and laughter, stories to be known
Neon flickers awaken in your mind
Ghosts of city nights you'll leave behind
Time to trade in sleep for concrete and stone
Where the heat pumps through the pavement, calling you home
Into the neon, let the nights take you away
Riding subways, beneath the city's gray
Everything you need, it's hidden down there
You'll find yourself in the electric air
Lost and found, in the pulsing light
Melodies and moments, your heart takes flight
A city's rhythm, pumping through your veins
Life begins at midnight, tolerance and change
Into the neon, let the nights take you away
Riding subways, beneath the city's gray
Everything you need, it's hidden down there
You'll find yourself in the electric air
Now you know where you must be
In the heart of the city, wild and free
Neon streetlights guiding you home tonight
Your anthem, in the neon's glow...
