[Verse 1]
Well you were happy where you were
But that girl, she reeled you in
This town was never good enough
Cause she was gonna see everything
And if you ever spoke of love
She just smiled and put you down
Cause she was making other plans
She had a vision of light and sound
[Chorus 1]
She said the neon on the river will light my way
And everything that we've been dreaming of
We'll make it real one day
So save your money, pack your bag
We better run before we disappear
She took the train into the city
But you're still here
[Verse 2]
You hear a song that takes you back
To some long-forgotten night
And friends who said they had your back
But they just turned and ran and let you fight
And on the bowling alley wall
You used all your smartest lines
But they've been painted over now
Looks like you're gonna get left behind
Well you were happy where you were
But that girl, she reeled you in
This town was never good enough
Cause she was gonna see everything
And if you ever spoke of love
She just smiled and put you down
Cause she was making other plans
She had a vision of light and sound
[Chorus 1]
She said the neon on the river will light my way
And everything that we've been dreaming of
We'll make it real one day
So save your money, pack your bag
We better run before we disappear
She took the train into the city
But you're still here
[Verse 2]
You hear a song that takes you back
To some long-forgotten night
And friends who said they had your back
But they just turned and ran and let you fight
And on the bowling alley wall
You used all your smartest lines
But they've been painted over now
Looks like you're gonna get left behind
