Track Insight / Lyrics
Been counting cars all evening long
In this lot under the neon song
They come and they go, a parade alone
Just watchin' over this place I call home
Time's thin sheets of rain wipe clean
The city's secrets, like the concrete
Footsteps echo, a hushed refrain
In this town of dreams, I remain
Neon watchman, standing tall and proud
Gazing at the dancers, lost in this crowd
Watching love and lives unfolding in this space
Neon watchman, pulse of this neon race
Couples stroll in, and they dance back out
Leaving me with the ghosts, and the doubt
If this is living or just a losing game
Fueling the rhythm of their electric flame
Time's thin sheets of rain wipe clean
The city's secrets, like the concrete
Footsteps echo, a hushed refrain
In this town of dreams, I remain
Neon watchman, standing tall and proud
Gazing at the dancers, lost in this crowd
Watching love and lives unfolding in this space
Neon watchman, pulse of this neon race
Sometimes I think I'm more than just a guard
A guardian of hearts, and the moments that scar
In this city of lights, they come alive
But for how long, I am left to decide
Neon watchman, standing tall and proud
Gazing at the dancers, lost in the crowd
Watching love and lives unfolding in this place
Neon watchman, heartbeat of this neon chase
Handclaps fade with the neon light
The city's pulse, slowly takes flight
Back to the lot, and the endless stream
Neon watchman, a vigil to keep, a dream.
