Track Insight / Lyrics
Bare cobblestones beneath leather soles
Precariously balanced on a weathered board
Gulls screech overhead as sun dips low
Reflections ripple on the still, darkening sea
In this moment, time stands still
An echo of what once was real
Memories layered upon the stones below
As twilight takes the city, and it lets me go
The wind that tousles hair grown long and gray
Carries distant sounds that fade away
Whispers of the laughter, love, and tears
Forming gridlock in my quiet ears
In this moment, time stands still
An echo of what once was real
Memories layered upon the cobblestones
As twilight takes the city, and it lets me go
For one more sunset, I'll stand and stare
Into the depths, a tear glistens there
Faces in the ripples, ghosts of past
As the crimson sky begins to wane at last
Silence shatters with a gull's shrill cry
A reminder life goes on, time won't deny
The privilege to witness love and loss
On these stones, my story's coarse repose
In this moment, time stands still
An echo of what once was real
Memories layered upon the cobblestones
As twilight takes the city, and it lets me go
The city darkens, stars start to gleam
I'll carry echoes in the rinse of every dream
Of cobblestone afternoons, and sunset's gentle sigh
In the quiet moments, I'll meet eyes that wonder why.
