Track Insight / Lyrics
Zip and zoom, blink and scan,
Through the bay's cold morning mist, I can
Feel your eyes on me, a targeted shot
As I pace the deck like a panther caught
My boots on wooden planks, a lonely beat
I'm a ghost on water, a mind retreat
From the city's cruel ache to this moody light
I came seeking peace, but love took flight
In your wake I stay, a leaf on a stream
As you sail away, my heart beats extreme
I'm a beacon watching you, an endless line of blue
A pier's final sorrow, piercing me through
Oh, out there in the bay, I'll count your footsteps past
A standard light still burning, to guide you ever fast
Lost in memories of your touch and your name
In San Francisco's mist, I'll forever remain
Whispers of our nights, a perfume in the air
A kiss on my skin, still electric there
In the silence after, I replay our refrains
An a cappella echo, of love's haunting pains
In your wake I stay, a leaf on a stream
As you sail away, my heart beats extreme
I'm a beacon watching you, an endless line of blue
A pier's final sorrow, piercing me through
Oh, out there in the bay, I'll count your footsteps past
A standard light still burning, to guide you ever fast
Lost in memories of your touch and your name
In San Francisco's mist, I'll forever remain
Like a lighthouse I stand, its beam searching the dark
For the flash of your smile, a light in the embark
The city's a canvas, where love's colors fade
But I'll hold your spectral form, in this lonely trade
Oh, out there in the bay, I'll count your footsteps past
A standard light still burning, to guide you ever fast
Lost in memories of your touch and your name
In San Francisco's mist, I'll forever remain
And when the night arrives, and my watch is done
I'll step into the fog, and let the darkness become
One with the unknown, the void, the vast unknown sea
Where you and I drift apart, you and me.
