[Verse 1]
There’s a bar down on 6th where the neon glows,
But tonight it feels colder than it did before.
The Lone Star sky can’t light my way,
Since you walked out, this town’s gone gray.
[Chorus]
Ain’t no light in Austin, not since you’ve been gone,
Every street feels empty, every night too long.
The music plays, but it don’t feel right,
Ain’t no light in Austin, just the dark tonight.
[Verse 2]
Took a drive out west past the city sprawl,
Hit the hill country roads, but I felt so small.
The radio sang of a love I knew,
But every chord just reminded me of you.
[Chorus]
Ain’t no light in Austin, not since you’ve been gone,
Every street feels empty, every night too long.
The music plays, but it don’t feel right,
Ain’t no light in Austin, just the dark tonight.
[Bridge]
The skyline used to sparkle like fire in the haze,
Now it’s just a shadow of the brighter days.
I’ve tried to move, but this heart won’t heal,
Austin’s lost its soul, and it’s all too real.
[Chorus]
Ain’t no light in Austin, not since you’ve been gone,
Every street feels empty, every night too long.
The music plays, but it don’t feel right,
Ain’t no light in Austin, just the dark tonight.
[Outro]
Neon signs still flicker, but they can’t compete,
With the love we lost on these worn-out streets.
Ain’t no light in Austin, just a lonesome fight,
Living in the shadows of your fading light.
