歌詞

Midnight calling, neon blue

There’s a thousand things to do

Hear the city breathe tonight

I’m gone before the morning light

Running where the shadows fall

Reading every crack in the wall

One quick move, a borrowed name

Leave no footprints, leave no shame

Behind the glass, behind the gold

There’s a story never told

Someone’s losing everything

While the rich boys toast and sing

But the sun comes up too soon

And I’m back in my old classroom

Late again, with a tired excuse

And a tie I never learned to use

Then you smile and ask me why

I’ve been looking at the sky

Girl, there’s something I should say

But the words keep running away

Run, run, run into the blue

There’s a whole wide world to make it through

Fly, fly, fly, don’t look behind

Leave a little hope for the left-behind

I can outrun the city lights

I can disappear into the night

But there’s one thing I can’t undo

I can’t steal my heart away from you

City’s whisper, calling my name

Every streetlight knows the game

City’s whisper, soft and clear

I’m still learning why I’m here

My best friend paints upon the wall

Kings who rise and kings who fall

He never asks me where I’ve been

He just sees the world beneath my skin

Mom says, “Son, you’re up too late”

Dad’s old clock won’t hesitate

Homework waiting on the floor

And your picture by my bedroom door

I’ve got secrets, you’ve got dreams

Nothing’s ever what it seems

I can take what shouldn’t stay

But I can’t make the hurt go away

If I’m right, then why’s it hard

To tell the truth and drop my guard?

I can face a thousand eyes

But not the tears I see in mine

Run, run, run into the blue

There’s a whole wide world to make it through

Fly, fly, fly, don’t look behind

Leave a little hope for the left-behind

I can outrun the city lights

I can disappear into the night

But there’s one thing I can’t undo

I can’t steal my heart away from you

City’s whisper, calling my name

Every streetlight knows the game

City’s whisper, soft and clear

I’m still learning why I’m here

Who’s watching who

Behind the window?

Who’s telling truth

And who would know?

A mask can hide a face from view

But it can’t tell me what is true

If I keep running from myself

Who’ll be there when I need help?

I don’t need to be a king

I don’t need a diamond ring

Just one chance to get it right

And your hand in the morning light

[Guitar Solo]

Run, run, run into the blue

There’s a whole wide world we’re running to

Fly, fly, fly, let the daylight in

Every lost soul gets to start again

I can outrun the city lights

I can disappear into the night

But I won’t let this dream fall through

I’ll find my way back home to you

City’s whisper, calling my name

I’m not the boy I was yesterday

City’s whisper, the sky turns clear

I’m still here, I’m still here

Midnight fading, morning blue

One more day to make it through

Hear the city, breathe it in

Tomorrow, I begin again

City’s whisper…

I’m still here
