Track Insight / Lyrics
Neon flicker spills like spilled wine
On cobblestones slick and cold as brine
Hear the murmur of the water glide
Beneath a sky of midnight pride
Coffee breath and cigarette haze
Another shift behind these faded days
But I watch the canal, a silver sheen
Reflecting back a lonely, ghostly scene
Swan boats glide, a pale moonlight show
Silent passengers, rows in a row
And I wonder what their stories hold
Secrets whispered, never to be told
In the canal glass, a city dreams
Of lost illusions, faded schemes
Reflected faces, longing eyes
Beneath the velvet, starlit skies
Brick walls crumble, whispers creep
Through ancient doorways, secrets deep
Ghostly laughter on the wind I hear
Echoing through the passing year
In the canal glass, a city dreams
Of lost illusions, faded schemes
Reflected faces, longing eyes
Beneath the velvet, starlit skies
The moonbeams paint a silver hue
On broken arches, stained with dew
A lonely saxophone's mournful song
A tapestry of right and wrong
The night is young, the city sleeps
While weary souls its sorrow keep
But in the canal's embrace so cold
Some dreams ignite, some stories unfold
In the canal glass, a city dreams
Of lost illusions, faded schemes
Reflected faces, longing eyes
Beneath the velvet, starlit skies
In the canal glass, a city dreams
A shattered mirror, it truly seems
But in the depths, a flicker bright
A star to guide us through the night
