We found a table in the back
Where the music's low and the light is cracked
Neon bleeding through the glass
You said some things are built to last
And I believed you
God I believed you
With the city loud outside
And everything inside so quiet
We were neon and quiet
Loud world soft us
Strangers all around us
But I only felt your touch
Neon and quiet
All night long
The kind of evening
That becomes a song
You and neon and quiet
And me
You traced the rim of your cold glass
Asked me what I wanted from the past
I said nothing I just want tonight
You smiled and all the neon got bright
Cities don't sleep
But we did eventually
Your head on my shoulder
The music finally
Running out of songs to play
The neon dimming down to grey
And even then
I didn't want to leave
Neon and quiet
Just you
Neon and quiet
Just us
