Streetlights bleed on the avenue
Purple gold and a shade of blue
Rain just stopped but the air is cold
A story that's already been told
In this high-rise glass and steel
Nothing in this empty room feels real
And I trace your name on the window pane
See the city lights blurring in the rain
Every passing car a fading melody
Is it only me
We were beautiful a skyline on fire
Burning up with a reckless desire
Now it's just echoes in these city lights
Haunting me on these lonely nights
We were beautiful like colors in the haze
Lost in the glow of our younger days
Now I'm dancing with the neon ghosts of you
Remember drives with no place to go
Just your hand on the radio
Singing off-key to forgotten songs
Like we knew where we both belonged
Now the silence is a heavy coat
On every single word I almost wrote
And I trace your smile in the window pane
See the city lights blurring through the pain
Every distant star a faded memory
Is it only me
We were beautiful a skyline on fire
Burning up with a reckless desire
Now it's just echoes in these city lights
Haunting me on these lonely nights
We were beautiful like colors in the haze
Lost in the glow of our younger days
Now I'm dancing with the neon ghosts of you
One last look at this perfect view
Every light just reminds me of you
Maybe broken is a kind of art
A shattered picture of a beating heart
We were beautiful a skyline on fire
Burning out from a reckless desire
Now it's just echoes in these city lights
Holding me through these lonely nights
We were beautiful like colors in the haze
Lost in the glow of our younger days
And I'm dancing with the neon ghosts of you
