The screen is rust and splintered wood
Silent now where lovers stood
A copper rooster turns so slow
Catching light from long ago
Copper arrow turns on rusted pole
Reflects a gone and silver soul
No cars remain to watch the show
Just wind and light and copper glow
The speaker posts are bent and gray
No voices carry words they say
The rooster spins on copper spine
Drinking light from fractured sign
Copper arrow turns on rusted pole
Reflects a gone and silver soul
No cars remain to watch the show
Just wind and light and copper glow
I tended lamps on rocky shore
Where fog would crawl and ships would roar
This vane reminds me of my tower
Counting each and passing hour
Copper arrow turns on rusted pole
Reflects a gone and silver soul
No cars remain to watch the show
Just wind and light and copper glow
Now winter settles in the lot
Where summer dreams were tied in knots
The copper rooster guards the night
Reflecting dead projector light
Copper arrow turns on rusted pole
Reflects a gone and silver soul
No cars remain to watch the show
Just wind and light and copper glow
Copper arrow turns on rusted pole
Just wind and light and copper glow
