You find the lens in the grey
The sun is slipping away
It sits on the gravel road
A heavy and silver load
Golden light on a plastic shell
A story that you know too well
Capture the spark in the haze
Lost in a violet blaze
The strap is a frayed old thread
A map of the things you said
The shutter clicks fast and loud
Beneath a low velvet cloud
Golden light on a plastic shell
A story that you know too well
Capture the spark in the haze
Lost in a violet blaze
You see the driveway in blue
The frame holds a different view
The glass is a frozen lake
A promise you didn't break
Golden light on a plastic shell
A story that you know too well
Capture the spark in the haze
Lost in a violet blaze
The bus stop is ten miles out
The engine begins to shout
You hold the old camera tight
Until the world turns to white
Golden light on a plastic shell
A story that you know too well
Capture the spark in the haze
Lost in a violet blaze
Flash on the stone
You are not alone
Gravel gloss glow
