Sawdust floors
 A heartache drowns as the whiskey pours
 There's a hole in the wall
 From some free for all
 The ringin' crack of that old cue ball

 I've been fallin' in here
 For what seems like years
 Where the tears and the lonely belong
 And wonder what's going on
 Beyond that blue neon

 Chorus:
 I hear tell there's people out there who don't know
 what losin' you means
 They don't have a heart
 That just falls apart
 At the mention of your name

 I heard they pretend
 The world didn't end
 Right when I knew you were gone
 I guess life still goes on
 Beyond that blue neon

 Chorus

 But it's a quarter 'til two
 And I don't have a clue
 As to what I'll do from now 'til dawn
 I wonder what's going on
 Beyond that blue neon

 Lord, what's going on
 Beyond that blue neon
