Lyrics

[Intro]
[Verse]
Neon signs bleed on the floor
I lock the heavy front door
The rain begins to pour
Like a ghost from before
Ice melts in a crystal glass
Watching the midnight hours pass
The shadows flicker on the glass
As the lonely spirits pass
[Pre-Chorus]
The trumpet starts to moan
You’re feeling all alone
Sitting on your throne
In a world of your own
[Chorus]
Let the dream go tonight
Under the pale yellow light
Everything will be alright
Keep the morning out of sight
Bathed in silver and white
In the middle of the night
[Post-Chorus]
Pour it down the drain
Wash away the pain
Standing in the rain
Nothing left to gain
[Verse]
You spoke of a stage in the sun
Of races you never quite won
The battle has just begun
Now that everything is done
A suitcase stayed on the shelf
Detailed stories of yourself
Like a book upon the shelf
You were hiding from yourself
[Pre-Chorus]
The Rhodes piano plays soft
Carrying your burdens aloft
The velvet keys are soft
Holding your spirit aloft
[Chorus]
Let the dream go tonight
Under the pale yellow light
Everything will be alright
Keep the morning out of sight
Bathed in silver and white
In the middle of the night
[Bridge]
The upright bass begins to walk
We don't even need to talk
The bitter taste is finally sweet
Walking out on the empty street
The city pulse begins to beat
In the rhythm of the street
[Solo]
[Verse]
The trumpet fades to a ghost
To the things we loved the most
The silence is a holy host
From the coast to the coast
The dust settles on the keys
Like a prayer upon your knees
Falling down to your knees
Like the leaves on the trees
[Chorus]
Let the dream go tonight
Under the pale yellow light
Everything will be alright
Keep the morning out of sight
Bathed in silver and white
In the middle of the night
[Outro]
