Next Exit - Concrete River Lyrics

Barb wire decorates the fence around the storefront
Metal bars beautify the windows
Girls walk by but you never see their eyes
They've heard about the wolves that come out into the night

But the metal and the concrete and the light
Make a pretty skyline tonight
Can I walk you down to the concrete river?
'Cuz the neon and the billboards and the light
Make your eyes sparkle tonight
Can we take a stroll to the concrete river?

Steel fence slides across the entry to the building
Double lock the door to the alley
People hustle by in a race with the darkness
They've heard about the animals it makes them nervous

But the metal and the concrete and the light
Make a pretty skyline tonight
Can I walk you down to the concrete river?
'Cuz the neon and the buildings and the light
Make your eyes sparkle tonight
Can we take a stroll to the concrete river?

Let's walk with hands entwined
Under electric byline
Let's kiss with arms in bind
Under electric skyline

'Cuz the metal and the concrete and the light
Make a pretty skyline tonight
Can we take a stroll to the concrete river?
'Cuz the neon and the buildings and the light
Make your eyes sparkle tonight
Can we take a stroll to the concrete river?

Can we take a stroll?
Can we take a stroll?
Can we take a stroll to the concrete river?
