Above the dark town
After the sun's gone down
Two vapor trails cross the sky
Catching the day's last goodbye
Black skyline looks rich as velvet

Etched on the faces
Something is shining

Energy surging like a storm
You plunge your hand in
You draw it back - scorched
Beneath it's shining
Like gold but better
Rumours of glory
