The lights shine clear through the sodium haze The night draws near and daylight fades Ignore the voices, discard the day For the brand new darkness, for the bright new way Hit Well, there have been better plans But none that I could ever understand Emerald signal, the green on black The lights say move, say never look back And so I find another place where I've never been seen Find another place where the red turns green Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again Where the emerald glistens through the rain The lights shine clear through the sodium haze The night draws near and the daylight fades But there's a voice in the distance quiet and clear Saying something that I never ever wanted to hear Well, there have been better plans But none that I could ever understand I see the emerald ... see the green on black See the light say move, say never look back And so I find another place where I'll never been seen Find another place where the red turns green Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again Where the emerald glistens through the rain, rain, rain And I'm happy here in the rain In the rain, in the rain, rain, rain I'm happy here in the rain Where the emerald glistens through the rain
