I'll be your red light, burning, yearning blue Keeping it cool, well after midnight, down around the pool Waiting for you to give me the green light Girl, you know I'll play the fool when I'm alone So give me the green light Oh, I'm such a mess without your love Without your love I'll be your cherry pie, the cat who's got the cream Mess with our team, we'll kill you with true lies You know legends never dream Waiting for you under the streetlights Girl, you know I'll play the fool when I'm alone So give me the hot nights Oh, I'm burning cold without your love Without your love I'll be your appetite, your summer salted tears I'll waste your years running from spotlights, hiding down the pier If you can stand to give me the green light Girl, you know I'll play the fool when I'm with you Don't give me that green light Forget it, let's light the fuse We can shine on in this crazy emerald world We can shine on in this crazy emerald world We can shine on in this crazy emerald world We can shine on in this crazy emerald world We can shine... We can shine on... ♪ I'll be your dead light I burn a busted hue If I tell the truth, I just need a flashlight To navigate my way homeward to you
