There's the neon sky that
I know so well
There's the smoky room
Where I chose to dwell
Though I hear your heart
Many miles away
The neon sky tells me
I must stay
Through the windy field
Of another land
I have seen your face, girl
I have held your hand
Though I should be there
With you there today
The neon sky knows that
I must stay
Cause the devil's red
But his money's green
That's where I'm from, oh
That's where I've been
On a dusty stage
Many years ago
I chose my road, still
I hope you know
That there'll come a day
With the neon sky
When we'll walk into the Sun
You and I
So he calls beckons unto me
From the empty hall
From the galleries
And so I must go
Leave you here today
Cause the neon sky
Orders me away
Yes, the devil's red
But his money's green
That's where I'm from, oh
That's where I've been
