Glitter on Asphalt

Verse 1

Bell-bottoms blowing in the summer wind, platforms on the stone,
Batik colors, wide lapels – we made that style our own.
Vinyl crackled in the dark, bass across the floor,
dancing under mirror balls, always wanting more.

Verse 2

Guitars rolled like thunderclouds, synths like falling light,
long songs, bigger dreams burning through the night.
Standing up for peace together, white doves in the sky,
side by side we faced tomorrow, reaching high.

Chorus (melodic lift, harmonized, compact)

Oh, seventies – shining bright,
shoulder-length hair in neon light.
Beetles rolling, colors burn,
glam rock hearts that never turn.
We were fire in the night –
take us back to that light.

Verse 3

Neon shining on the streets, engines running wild,
fog lights cutting through the dark like a restless child.
Arcade sounds and future dreams ringing strong and loud,
one voice rising from the crowd.

Final Chorus (wider, higher, full harmony)

Oh, seventies – shining bright,
shoulder-length hair in neon light.
Beetles rolling, colors burn,
glam rock hearts that never turn.
We were fire in the night –
take us back to that light.
