Track Insight / Lyrics
Diesel haze hangs in the chill, October air
Streetlamps flicker, casting shadows everywhere
The Ferris wheel, a skeletal frame, against the dying sun
A rusting beacon, memories of laughter, almost gone
Harbor lights burn bright, like diamonds in the night
Guiding boats through darkness, a flickering, steady light
The tugboat groans and sighs, her engine a low drone
She watches over memories, a silent, lonely throne
Carousel horses, frozen mid-spin, their painted eyes stare
Empty popcorn buckets litter the ground, a forgotten affair
The merry-go-round music, a melody long since played
Echoes in the twilight, of laughter and parade
Harbor lights burn bright, like diamonds in the night
Guiding boats through darkness, a flickering, steady light
The tugboat groans and sighs, her engine a low drone
She watches over memories, a silent, lonely throne
A distant foghorn cries, its mournful song the air
Wind whips through the Ferris wheel, a restless, haunting prayer
The moon ascends, a silver disk, above the harbor wall
The tugboat dreams of summer, a time before the fall
The tugboat's whistle blows, a solitary sound
Across the water, echoes ripple, secrets gently bound
She waits for the sunrise, a promise of a new day
But the memories linger, haunting her in every way
The harbor lights still glow, a beacon in the night
Guiding ships to safety, with their warm and gentle light
The tugboat stands her watch, her engine humming low
As the sun breaks through the darkness, a silent, gentle flow
Harbor lights burn bright, like diamonds in the night
Guiding boats through darkness, a flickering, steady light
The tugboat groans and sighs, her engine a low drone
She watches over memories, a silent, lonely throne
(Rhodes piano fade out, muffled trumpet, distant foghorn)
