City Ghost from FAKE NOSTALGIA by Mark Bulos

A quiet little storm and a busy street
Just strolling down the places we would usually be
Why does it feel so bittersweet?
It's been a little while, how have you been?
Would it hurt to come around and see your face again?
Not that I'm low
But there's something strange about the way these

-City lights shine so bright
I can't help feeling like a shadow tonight
As I wander around, that neon glow just fades away as time goes by

And everywhere I go
It reminds me of back then
I feel like a ghost in this place
So lost and out of frame
And all I hear is our bittersweet melody again and again

Oh underneath the moonlight
I can feel that ghost of you just passing by
It gives me a sweet smile
But I know you're far from me
And I can't tell if you can hear from me
Is this our last farewell?
Just caught in a spell
With all this time to kill in the same old empty

-City lights
Dancing alone, which way do I go tonight?
Just give me a sign
Cause that neon glow you used to hold has faded with the night time

And everywhere I go
It reminds me of back then
I feel like a ghost in this place
So lost and out of frame
And all I hear is our bittersweet melody again and again

Oh I'm hiding amongst these city lights
Biding all my time just hoping I'll see you again some time
In that neon glow just shining
That way I'll know that you'll be doing fine tonight
