Track Insight / Lyrics
(Periodic slide of city cars, distant calls of seagulls)
Stone pier stretches out like skeletal fingers
Whispers made of salt and mist and darkness cling
Lonely detective paces, lost in his own
Tapestry of thoughts, scuffed shoes scraped on worn wood
Dusk whispers secrets, secrets of the town
Everyone's business slips beneath the waves, drowned
Shadowed figures fade, lovers' lingering scents
Dusk whispers secrets, in alcoves bent
Windswept hair, glasses smudged, trenchcoat flapping in the breeze
Cigar smoke curls, a lone streetlamp's amber glow
Rain drips from brim, Riviera Cafe's neon sign
A melody of engine hum, melancholy sighs
Dusk whispers secrets, secrets of the town
Everyone's business slips beneath the waves, drowned
Shadowed figures fade, lovers' lingering scents
Dusk whispers secrets, in alcoves bent
Reflections ripple, a thousand shattered eyes
Mirrored tales of heartache, midnight's compromise
A boozed-up tourist staggers, stumbling on his feet
Heedless of the past, lost in the city's heat
Dusk whispers secrets, secrets of the town
Everyone's business slips beneath the waves, drowned
Shadowed figures fade, lovers' lingering scents
Dusk whispers secrets, in alcoves bent
(Periodic slide of city cars, distant calls of seagulls)
