Neon Valley Street

May this song reach your heart May your ears love the sweet melody Every note, every chord I've arranged them for you and for me May the sound of my voice be your guide Bring you closer to me Let us bathe in the noise Let the love in your heart speak to me Oh now, I'll pretend I'm holding your hand May this song reach your heart May this song reach your heart May this song reach your heart May this song journey on to you We met alone forbidden in the city Running fast through time like Tubman and John Henry But the time was wrong Illegal aliens moaned It's such a pity that the city's just a danger zone Atomic blues bombing hearts like Iraqis in Babylon The droid control will take your soul and rate it Berate, slay it You hate it and debate it but you don't get caught And outlaw outrunning the law, ha May the strings make you smile May they always remind you of me For now let's pretend I'm holding your hand May this song reach your heart May this song reach your heart May this song reach your heart May this song journey on for you --- Neon Valley Street - Janelle Monáe
