Streetlights Know Your Name (version 2)

Verse

Six o'clock and the sodium's gold

Windows blink like a hundred fireflies

Corner store radio hums low

Sirens far away in a different key

Taxi headlights blur to yellow spray

Every face is someone I used to know

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it, the light turns slow

Does it ever catch what it's meant to hold?

Chorus

Streetlights know your name by now

Gold on every window pane

Verse 2

Bus stop shadow stretching long past nine

Steam rolls up where the streetlamp bends

Somebody's laughing on a third-floor ledge

Music drifts from an open windowed edge

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it, the light turns slow

Does it ever catch what it's meant to hold?

Chorus

Streetlights know your name by now

Gold on every window pane

Bridge

Maybe home isn't where you land

It's the whole block learning how to understand

Every lamp post holds a story half-told

Miles of amber turning old

Outro

Streetlights know your name by now

Fading soft before they go
