Ever since you left me I've been ridin' 'round Crankin' up a little country gold heartbreak Cried and dried these tears I don't know how Much more missin' you I can take I pray pray prayed, for a sign sign sign Now there it is in the window It's about time, damn time There’s a neon light at the end of the tunnel It ain’t all that bright, but even though it’s subtle It’s got me feeling alright, go on and make it a double There’s a neon light at the end of the tunnel, tunnel, tunnel I take a shot of 'I don't care what you doing now' Chase that one with a cold 'Screw you' When that's done, I just might wash it down With a big pitcher of 'Someone new' That blond blonde blonde At the bar bar bar See if she wants to try and unbreak my heart heart heart There’s a neon light at the end of the tunnel It ain’t all that bright, but even though it’s subtle It’s got me feeling alright, go on and make it a double There’s a neon light at the end of the tunnel, tunnel, tunnel When we were together I thought life was set forever Even though I knew better that the pain would never end They say the night's darkest just before the dawn gets kissed By the daybreak got down on my knees and I Prayed, prayed, prayed, for a sign, sign, sign Now there it is in the window It's about time, damn time There’s a neon light at the end of the tunnel It ain’t all that bright, but even though it’s subtle It’s got me feeling alright, go on and make it a double There’s a neon light at the end of the tunnel, tunnel, tunnel
