When the sun goes down on my side o' town,
that lonesome feelin' comes to my door,
and the
whole world turns blue.
There's a run-down bar across the railroad tracks.
I got a table
for two, way in the back, were I sit alone
and think of losin' you.
I spend most every
night beneath the light of a neon moon.
(Chorus)
Well if you lose your one and
only,
there's always room here for the lonely
to watch your broken dreams dance in and out
of the beams
of a neon moon.
I think of two young lovers run wild and free.
I
close my eyes and sometimes see
you in the shadows of this smoke filled room.
No tellin'
how many tears I've sat here and cried,
or how many lies that I've lied,
tellin' my poor
heart 'She'll come back some day.'
Oh, but I'll be alright, as long as there's light from a
neon moon.
(repeat Chorus)
The jukebox plays on, drink by drink,
and the
words of every sad song seem to say what I think
and this hurt inside o' me ain't never gonna
end.
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon.
