Track Insight / Lyrics
Hey, like a barn owl winking, I'm back in the night
Misty bayous calling me forward, my moth heart on flight
Seeking reflections kissed by moonlight, where secrets hide away
You'll never know the tales I keep, 'neath pierlights' silver sway
The foghorns whisper, silken threads between the tides
Gulls crying out like lost souls, as I wander, night's confidant
This salty air it fills my
lungs a solace I've craved so true
In the stillness, I unravel, untethered, free to muse
Ghostly apparitions of love, in every stonewall stay
Whispers of long-forgotten flame, as I walk by with day
But in the twilight, I emerge, reborn from embers cold
The ocean's vastness, a canvas still, for tales yet untold
Oh, the stories I could tell, of hearts that lovewsore and fell
Beneath the city skyline's rim of
the dreams that could not swim
From this lonely pier I haunt, my solitary evening flight
I'll find the meaning of tonight
The seawall's ancient stones bear witness to the loves that sank
In every rivulet, a memory, of sweet words, now grow cold
Yet here, beneath the stars above, I shed the weight of grief
And on the bayou's velvet shroud, a wisp of hope I breathe
Ghostly apparitions of love, in every stonewall stay
Whispers of long-forgotten flame, as I walk by with day
But in the twilight, I emerge, reborn from embers cold
The ocean's vastness, a canvas still, for tales yet untold
Oh the stories I could tell
of hearts that lovewsore and fell
Beneath the city skyline's rim of
the dreams that could not swim
From this lonely pier I haunt, my solitary evening flight
I'll find the meaning of tonight
The world outside these wharf rails, with all its pains and joys
In every sigh and every gull's cry, a symphony employed
Through every ebb and every flow, I'll chart my course anew
To find the heal, the heart, the light, in all that clouds my view
Oh the stories I could tell
of hearts that lovewsore and fell
Beneath the city skyline's rim, of the dreams that could not swim
From this lonely pier I haunt, my solitary evening flight
I'll find the truth of what I've sought, come dawn's pale light
Fading stars, a halo's glow, on salted skin
As mist offends the morning sun, I'll bid this place adieu
The secrets kept within my heart, like sea glass polished bright
Will carry on through endless nights, beneath the San Francisco lights.
