Beneath a Neon Sky

(Verse 1)

Another late night comes, another fleeting pass

Of someone's hand against mine, a whispered name I barely catch

Lost in the echo of laughter, a fleeting photograph

Of a life I thought I wanted, a love I thought I knew

Now just a ghost in the corner, a faded shade of blue

(Pre-Chorus)

Remember summer nights, fireflies in the air

Promises whispered, a future we would share

Like stolen wine, sweet and intoxicating

Now the bottle's empty, the feeling's dissipating

(Chorus)

American Motel, room 204

The air is thick with smoke and what I'm longing for

A different ending, a different face in the light

But all I find are shadows in the lonely night

American Motel, where dreams go to die

Another heartbreak etched beneath a neon sky

(Verse 2)

She said she loved me, said forever was our song

But forever's a long time when everything goes wrong

Packed her bags and left, no goodbye, no note

Just the lingering scent of her perfume, a lump in my throat

I trace her name on the condensation on the glass

Another memory fading, another moment that won't last

(Pre-Chorus)

Remember summer nights, fireflies in the air

Promises whispered, a future we would share

Like stolen wine, sweet and intoxicating

Now the bottle's empty, the feeling's dissipating

(Chorus)

American Motel, room 204

The air is thick with smoke and what I'm longing for

A different ending, a different face in the light

But all I find are shadows in the lonely night

American Motel, where dreams go to die

Another heartbreak etched beneath a neon sky

(Bridge)

(Tempo slows, music becomes more stripped back, just a simple piano melody)

Maybe someday I'll find a love that stays

A love that burns brighter than these hazy days

But tonight, I'm just a silhouette in the gloom

Lost in the echo of a forgotten perfume

(Chorus)

American Motel, room 204

The air is thick with smoke and what I'm longing for

A different ending, a different face in the light

But all I find are shadows in the lonely night

American Motel, where dreams go to die

Another heartbreak etched beneath a neon sky
