Cold wind bites the rusted rail
Grey sky turns a ghostly pale
Old tires spin on wet concrete
Silver mist hides every street
Running through the salt and spray
Hunting for a faded day
Tracing lines along the shore
Searching for an open door
Scent of brine and diesel fuel
Winter air is sharp and cruel
Paws are worn from jagged stone
Walking through the night alone
Running through the salt and spray
Hunting for a faded day
Tracing lines along the shore
Searching for an open door
Meter clicks a steady beat
Empty cabs on Nob Hill street
Follow shadows in the haze
Lost inside a foggy maze
Running through the salt and spray
Hunting for a faded day
Tracing lines along the shore
Searching for an open door
Golden Gate is lost in white
Hidden from the city light
One last howl into the breeze
Swaying like the redwood trees
Running through the salt and spray
Hunting for a faded day
Tracing lines along the shore
Searching for an open door
Fog on the pier
The end is near
Just one more fare
The mist is there
