Ghosts in the neon 4

Verse

Fourteen at the corner gas station light

Your smile cuts through the cigarette haze tonight

You said you'd wait till summer comes around

I watched that neon bleed your name in the ground

Pre-Chorus

Something starts where the streetlamps end

Can't explain why I hold on to this instead

Chorus

Ghosts in the neon, dancing slow

We're chasing shadows only we can see somehow

Fading headlights cut through my chest

Ghosts in the neon, stay right here with me

Verse 2

You walked up to my locker wearing silver eyes

I swear I felt it drop like a single note in flight

Your mom said you'd move before school ends

I counted every day till you said yes again

Pre-Chorus

Something starts where the streetlamps end

Can't explain why I hold on to this instead

Chorus

Ghosts in the neon, dancing slow

We're chasing shadows only we can see somehow

Fading headlights cut through my chest

Ghosts in the neon, stay right here with me

Bridge

Twenty years gone and I still feel your hand

Smeared across the concrete where we planned

Maybe it's not where you are that I miss

It's where we were for just one little kiss

Chorus

Ghosts in the neon, dancing slow

We're chasing shadows only we can see somehow

Fading headlights cut through my chest

Ghosts in the neon, stay right here with me
