you and me

swim upstream

against the flow we go



like salmon swim

to mountain tops

it's the only thing we know



neon lights

and big city streets

along in you grows



we drag the brush

as time goes on

winding trails of blue



for those to see

the paths we took

to make a dream come true



neon lights

and these city streets

your presence overdue



we lead not follow

and that's hard to do

when no one follows you



with nothing new

we will pretend

invent our world again



the neon lights

how they shined for you

they'll shine for others too



we lead not follow

and the aim was true

and so they followed you



they followed you
