Track Insight / Lyrics
Misty morning on the dock
Salty seaweed tangled in my socks
Gasoline and diesel fumes
I clear my throat, the day commences
Empty harbor, eerie stillness
Gulls shriek in the salted air
First rays of dawn against my face
I fire up the diesel engine there
Rumble, roar, it's time to pace
Buoys at dawn, my path unbroken
Following lines where ferry never spoke
Anchors dropped, since last was here
Buoys at dawn, no ship in sight, just me
Lights from shore cast eerie glow
I weave through slips, wake gently flows
Water's calm, the world is hushed
Atop the bridge, my spot is cozier than a couch
The peaceful stillness, it's my haven
Gulls shriek in the salted air
First rays of dawn against my face
I navigate the twists and turns there
Watch the buoys mark my place
Buoys at dawn, my path unbroken
Following lines where ferry never spoke
Anchors dropped, since last was here
Buoys at dawn, no ship in sight, just me
Seagulls ride the morning breeze
The harbor's eyes, they watch me please
Their calls an eerie soundtrack
In this empty world, I find my anchor
Dawn's pale light, it's my friend
In the stillness of this quiet space
I hear the echoes of my footsteps pace
No other noise, no other sound
Just my presence, the harbor's secrets unbound
Buoys at dawn, my path unbroken
Following lines where ferry never spoke
Anchors dropped, since last was here
Buoys at dawn, no ship in sight, just me
Digital synth leads fade
808 clap and funk guitar phase
I've completed my solitary ride
The harbor's waiting, the day is wide
Buoys at dawn, and so I stay
My tugboat rocking gently, till the end of day
