"Flashing Lights" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

I am wearing
A white long-sleeve button-down
The pink colors behind the clouds tonight
Mirror the softer shades of your nightgown
As the neurotransmitters go crazy inside of me
You swear you're leaving town

[Refrain:]
Empty promises
Empty promises

I am watching
The way the wind seems to pass straight through your body
When you run your fingernail along my neck
And you spill some water on me
You say you're as good as gone
Well, don't look now, but here comes the dawn

[Refrain:]
Empty promises
Empty promises
Empty promises
Empty promises
