Track Insight / Lyrics

I've hauled tourists through Papeete dawn My tires know every pothole worn Black sand stretches beneath my frame Emerald peaks call out my name No meter runs on island time Fare paid in mangoes paid in lime Volcanic rock grinds in my tread Dreams of home stay in my head Black sand highway meets the sky Green peaks watch the waves roll by Taxi rests on sacred ground Paradise has lost and found Morning light hits basalt stone I carry shells and coral bone Passengers leave leis on my seat Sweet perfume mixes with exhaust heat Black sand highway meets the sky Green peaks watch the waves roll by Taxi rests on sacred ground Paradise has lost and found Steam rises from the caldera mouth I've driven north I've driven south But nowhere touches quite like this Where ocean meets the abyss Sunset paints the sand in gold Stories of the ancients told My engine cools in evening air Coconut palms wave without care Next fare waits at market square Flowers woven in her hair I'll drive where black sand meets the peak Before my engine starts to speak Black sand highway meets the sky Green peaks watch the waves roll by Taxi rests on sacred ground Paradise has lost and found Wheels stop turning on this shore Drive no more drive no more
