Neon

When sky blue gets dark enough To see the colors of the city lights A trail of ruby red and diamond white Hits her like a sunrise She comes and goes and comes and goes Like no one can Tonight she's out to lose herself And find a high on Peachtree Street From mixed drinks to techno beats it's always Heavy into everything She comes and goes and comes and goes Like no one can She comes and goes and no one knows She's slipping through my hands She's always buzzing just like Neon, neon Neon, neon Who knows how long, how long, how long She can go before she burns away I can't be her angel now You know it's not my place to hold her down And it's hard for me to take a stand When I would take her anyway I can She comes and she goes Like no one can She comes and she goes She's slipping through my hands She's always buzzing just like Neon, neon Neon, neon Who knows how long, how long, how long She can go before she burns away, away She comes and she goes Like no one can She comes and she goes She's slipping through my hands She's always buzzing just like Neon, neon Neon, neon Who knows how long, how long, how long She can go before she burns away, away --- Neon - John Mayer
