Track Insight / Lyrics
I stand here watchin' shadows creep
Across the dock and down the pier
The ferry boat is sound asleep
And the only sound is the wind's soft cheer
The waves they crash upon the shore
With a rhythmic beat, a lonesome moan
The darkness whispers, "Come explore"
But I'm rooted here, a heart alone
Oh, I'm the ferryman, tied to this place
My soul it floats, in time and space
A journey never made, a path not seen
A captive dream, a whispered scene
The storm it rages, the lightning flies
Across the sky, a jagged trail
The thunder roars, a mournful cry
As if the heavens start to wail
Oh, I'm the ferryman, tied to this place
My soul it floats, in time and space
A journey never made, a path not seen
A captive dream, a whispered scene
But in the morn, the sun will rise
And paint the clouds with hues of gold
A promise whispers in the skies
That freedom's tale will soon unfold
The storm it fades, the night gives way
To dawn's soft light, a hopeful gleam
A new day breaks, a brighter day
A ferryman's hope, a whispered dream
The ferry chugs, its engines roar
Across the waves, a homeward bound
And I will stand upon the shore
Until the day I can be found
Oh, I'm the ferryman, released at last
My soul it flies, on winds so fast
A ride made, a path I've seen
A dream fulfilled, a living scene
