Neon Lights
Foss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our bodies collide
By the bar waiting
Then you catch my eye
Now I´m dancing with a new toy
And I taste the thrill on his tounge
Blue eyed nice guy
Looks like my type
He holds my body
under neon lights
Blue eyed nice guy
Looks like my type
He holds my body
under neon lights
Woke up with a headache
You right by my side
He smells like whiskey
We´ll do it again tonight
Now I´m dancing with a new toy
And I taste the thrill on his tounge
Blue eyed nice guy
Looks like my type
He holds my body
Under neon lights
Blue eyed nice guy
Looks like my type
He holds my body
under neon lights
Yes you crushed me
did not feel guilty
You made it my fault
like it was your choice
But now I´m happy
cause he´s beside me
thanks for letting go
Blue eyed nice guy
looks like my type
he holds my body
(he holds my body)
Blue eyed nice guy
Looks like my type
He holds my body
under neon lights

The aftermath of the encounter is revealed in the verses that follow, as the singer wakes up with a headache and memories of the previous night's escapades.
