City Lights And Cigarettes Lyrics

I saw you standing underneath the neon glow
Cigarette smoke dancing in the cold
You looked at me like we already knew
Every broken thing we'd both been through
We walked for hours through the empty streets
Your hand brushed mine, my heart skipped beats
And for a moment everything felt right
Like maybe we were meant to cross that night

City lights and cigarettes
You're the one I can't forget
One night burned into my chest
Now every song sounds like your silhouette
And maybe we were never meant to stay
Just two lost souls that drifted different ways
But God I swear for one damn night
You made this empty world feel right

You laughed while rain fell on your hair
Like the whole world disappeared somewhere
City lights reflected in your eyes
Now all I do is replay that goodbye
You always said see you but we both know
Morning always kills the truth
Still I search for your face sometimes
In crowded bars and city lights

City lights and cigarettes
You're the one I can't forget
One night burned into my chest
Now every song sounds like your silhouette
And maybe we were never meant to stay
Just two lost souls that drifted different ways
But God I swear for one damn night
You made this empty world feel right

And I still drive through these streets alone
Hoping somehow you'll come home
One more night under the lights
One more chance to make it right

City lights and cigarettes
You're the ghost inside my head
And even if we never meet again
I'd relive that night a thousand times instead
