We met by the ticket wall
Late rain on the chrome bus stop
Your jacket had arcade dust
And a name I could not drop
A hovercar slid by slow
Blue static on the window glass
You said"Don't let this night go"
So I held it like it would last
Tell me where you go
When the screen goes dark
Hold me in the glow
Before we drift apart
After the arcade
We were gold we were brave
After the arcade
We kept running the same wave
After the arcade
Say my name say my name
After the arcade
I still feel that frame
Your voice came back through the haze
Soft and electric far away
Street vendor counting loose change
While the night kept changing shape
I saw our faces in glass
In the watch shop on the corner block
You smiled like a secret spark
Then the whole world skipped and stopped
Tell me where you go
When the screen goes dark
Hold me in the glow
Before we drift apart
After the arcade
We were gold we were brave
After the arcade
We kept running the same wave
After the arcade
Say my name say my name
After the arcade
I still feel that frame
Glass in the rain
Sky on a wire
Your shadow still stays
Inside the fire
Oh oh
Don't let it fade
Oh oh
Stay in my frame
After the arcade
We were gold we were brave
After the arcade
We kept running the same wave
After the arcade
Say my name say my name
After the arcade
I still feel that frame
