leather and neon

Verse 1 The bass was thumping through the brick and the glass Watching the hours and the dancers pass Rosa was twenty-eight, cool and collected Looking for a night she hadn’t expected Miguel was the spark, the friend in the middle Solving the night like a beautiful riddle He pulled them together in the heat of the crowd Where the pulse of the city was beating out loud. Verse 2 Then she saw him standing, a vision in black Melesio at twenty-one, never looking back In those leather pants, catching the neon glow A rebel with a rhythm only he could know The age was a number, the moment was real They felt a connection they didn't have to conceal From the center of the floor to the edge of the street The world started turning the second they beat. Chorus From a nightclub floor to a life brand new A million to one, but they pulled through Rosa and Melesio, a match in the dark Miguel lit the match, but they kept the spark Started with a dance, a look, and a sign Now they’re building a legacy, one day at a time. Bridge Now the strobe lights are gone for a different glow Watching a beautiful family grow Jacob and Michael, the pride and the joy Two hearts to follow, boy after boy And Melesio’s got a plan for a permanent sign To tattoo her lips so they’re always on his mind A mark of a love that’s deep and it’s true A red-ink reminder of the first time he knew. Outro Yeah, Miguel held the door, but they walked on through Since twenty-eight met twenty-one, and two became four Rosa, Melesio, Michael, and Jacob—who could ask for more? In those leather pants... With a tattoo of her kiss, they’re still dancing through the years.
