Track Insight / Lyrics
Electric blue digits, rain on the roof,
Sole searching for shelter, weary of proof
Through neon puddles, streets alive with sound,
One little wing beats, spinning round and round
Tinny laughter echoes, a distant call,
Sophie's first plane takes a tumble and fall
Landlord's ledger, laundry day blues,
Parents at work, a tiny soul adrift in the muses
Coat pockets full of dryer sheets, a secret stash
Special delivery, homemade by her father's dash
Insurance against loneliness in the laundromat night
Making something magic in the rhythm and the light
Footprints in the pews, tracing the tracks
Through the neon puddles, under cardboard stacks
One by one they're counted, her treasure to keep
This counting game whispers, "Life's secrets in every step"
Raindrops on her face, a staccato beat
Runway cleared, and she's ready to take flight, not defeat
Boxed in by the washers, spin cycles spinning round
She's a modern-day snowflake, drying in this laundromat found
Coat pockets full of dryer sheets, a secret stash
Special delivery, homemade by her father's dash
Insurance against loneliness in the laundromat night
Making something magic in the rhythm and the light
Footprints in the pews, tracing the tracks
Through the neon puddles, under cardboard stacks
One by one they're counted, her treasure to keep
This counting game whispers, "Life's secrets in every step"
Rain subsiding, thunderbird's distant roar
She walks to her heart's drum, counting evermore
The more the numbers mount, the closer she gets
To finding her funny bone, her secret talent set
Footprints in the pews, tracing the tracks
Through the neon puddles, under cardboard stacks
One by one they're counted, her treasure to keep
This counting game whispers, "Life's secrets in every step"
Laundry's done, lights fade to black
Sophie's tale begins, a story on track
From footprints in pews to runways at dawn
Her future's unspooling, one counting song by song
