Keane - Neon River
текст песни

Well you were happy where you were,
But that girl, she reeled you in,
This town was never good enough,
Because she was going to everything,

And if you ever spoke of love,
She just smiled and put you down,
Because she was making other plans,
She had a vision of light and sound,

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’d better run before we disappear,
She took the train into the city,
But you’re still here

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 going to get left behind

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,
I want to run with you on Stamford Hill,
She took the train into the city,
But you stood still

You stood still above the track,
You knew as you watched her go,
That she was never coming back,
You stuck to places that you know,
You said you were scared of heights,
And that you didn’t want to go,
Where everyone else goes
