Neon Afterglow

Midnight's built in, silver on the floor;

You call me like a signal

I can't ignore;

Neon on your collar, cold and bright;

I read your moves in the corner light;

I keep my cool, but the room knows why;

Your shadow pulls a clean line through my sky;

Say my name like you mean to stay;

Then drift a little just to make me sway;

I don't chase, but I don't let go;

I let the face not tell you what

I know;

We're dancing in the afterglow;

Where the hot blue lights move slow;

Skin so cool, hearts all in a stance;

One little spark and we're back again;

We're dancing in the afterglow;

Take it easy, let it roll;

I don't fall hard, I fall in time;

Right on the edge of your neon shine;

Hey!

Hey!

You talk in circles like

I do the haze;

Smiling like I've seen this kind of maze;

Your hands say yes, your eyes say maybe;

I keep it locked but the rhythm sways me;

The mirror flashes the night that's clean;

Like a midnight's me in a magazine;

I let my silence wear the spark;

Then you lean close and it hits the mark;

Say my name like you mean to stay;

Then drift a little just to make me sway;

I won't chase, but I don't let go;

I let the baseline tell you what

I know;

We're dancing in the afterglow;

Where the hard to life's smooth so;

It's so cruel, hearts are in a spin;

Pulling us back and we're back again;

We're dancing;

In the afterglow, take it easy, let it roll;

I don't fall hard, I fall in time;

Right on the edge of your neon shine;

If you want me, keep it clean;

No big promises, just a scene;

One more turn and I might say;

What I've been holding all night away;

So press in close, don't wait;

We know these strings are way too well;

Way too well;

We're dancing in the afterglow;

While the hot good life snoops slow;

Skin so cool, heart so little spin;

One little spark and we're back again;

We're dancing in the afterglow;

Take it easy;

Let it grow;

I don't fall hard, I fall inside;

Right on the edge of your neon shine;

Neon flames still I feel it burn;

More like fire than winter;

Don't let it go;
