Red Light Glow

By Simply Lost in the Right Direction DBA

Human & Machine

​​

Cobblestones talking under your feet

Canal water bending neon in the street

Bicycle bells cutting through the night

And every little window throwing borrowed light

There’s a haze hanging soft in the air

Sweet smoke drifting from everywhere

Café doors half open, low and slow

Letting that midnight current roll

​

You don’t stop but you don’t move fast

Like you’re trying to make the moment last

​

( Chorus)

 In the red light, red light glow

Where the night moves fast but your feet go slow

Every doorway steals the show

In the red light, red light glow 

Red light, red light glow

Reflections dancing down below

Every step you start to know

That red light, red light glow 

​

(Verse 2)

Windows flicker like a silent call

Shadows leaning on a narrow wall

Perfume mixing with the drifting haze

Blurring out in a neon daze

There’s a doorway half-lit in red

With a thousand things that go unsaid

And the river hums that low hello

Through the smoke and the undertow

​

(Pre-Chorus)

You hear footsteps echo soft and low

Like a secret only night would know

​

(Chorus)

In the red light, red light glow

Where the night moves fast but your feet go slow

Every doorway steals the show

In the red light, red light glow 

 Red light, red light glow

Reflections dancing down below

Every step you start to know

That red light, red light glow 

​

(Bridge)

You can turn away, you can lean in close

Through the drifting sweet of the midnight smoke

Where the lines get blurred and the truth runs thin

In the quiet pull that draws you in

​

(Final Chorus)

In the red light, red light glow

Feel the current pulling slow

Every face just comes and goes

In the red light, red light glow 

Red light, red light glow

Through the haze where the soft winds blow

Take it with you when you go

That red light, red light glow 

​

(Outro)

Cobblestones and undertow…

Midnight drifting soft and low…

In the haze of that glow…

We are William and Mary Kay. This is our blog about the next journey in our lives. We have always shared a love of travel and have visited many parts of the world, but there is so much more to see and experience. After separating ourselves from the obligations of work and possessions we are free to walk this beautiful planet and immerse ourselves in the rich cultures and meet the wonderful people with whom we share this planet. We are both interested in art, history, archaeology and culture and hope to volunteer to keep and maintain historical and environmental sites.  We live active lives and enjoy, snorkeling, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, sailing, hiking, snowshoe hiking, biking, zip lining and are up for almost any activity. This blog is to let our current and future friends know where we are and what we are doing. We are simply lost in the right direction.
