Lost in the Afterglow

Intro

Smoke curls in the daylight breaking

Faint hopes drift across my window pane

Soft echoes call, electricity waking

Old dreams flicker, never quite the same

Verse 0

Wheels turn slow through city rain

Glass reflections fading with the train

Crimson signals blinking in the haze

Stolen hours from distant yesterdays

Verse 1

Neon avenues glowing in my mind

Chasing silhouettes I left behind

Signals from the static fill the night

Traces of your laughter, out of sight

Pre-Chorus

Staring at roads I can’t remember

Drifting through haze that never clears

Chorus

Blue sun rising, I see you from afar

Faded memories flicker where you are

Driving through the lines I drew back when

Lost in the afterglow again

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Verse 2

Mirror ball reflections in your eyes

Static on the screen of days gone by

Holding onto pieces I can’t replace

Running through the shadows of your face

Pre-Chorus

All of the time I keep rewinding

Fragments collide, the past reminding

Chorus

Blue sun rising, I see you from afar

Faded memories flicker where you are

Driving through the lines I drew back when

Lost in the afterglow again

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Bridge

Signal fades as midnight passes by

Retro colors streaming through my mind

Still hear your voice in faded reverie

Orbiting the places we used to be

Chorus

Blue sun rising, shadows softly fall

Trace the outlines, echoes down the hall

Searching for the lines I crossed back when

Caught in the afterglow again

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Outro

City fading slow beneath a sapphire sky

Static on the freeway, letting go last night

Memories like headlights slide into the stream

Turning with the rhythm of a half-remembered dream

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
