Track Insight / Lyrics
You trace the rail where salt wind bites
The ferry cuts a silver line
The postcard's edges frayed and white
Hold Sydney in your palm tonight
Jacaranda stains the sandstone gold
The Opera sails catch dying light
You read the message, not your own
A decade folds, a story told
Harbor postcard in your fingers
The dusk paints sails in rose and grey
Harbor postcard, memory lingers
You breathe the salt and walk away
The Bridge arcs steel through violet air
A note smudged deep by thumb and time
You didn't know you'd still be there
In every crease and faded line
Harbor postcard in your fingers
The dusk paints sails in rose and grey
Harbor postcard, memory lingers
You breathe the salt and walk away
The choir voice you used to raise
Now hums beneath the traffic roar
You taste the salt on evening air
And wonder who you're waiting for
The postcard slips inside your coat
The ferry horn cuts through the cold
You've never needed any note
To find the way the light takes hold
The railing's cold against your palm
The harbor swallows up the sky
You fold the dusk, you find your calm
And let the postcard testify
Harbor postcard in your fingers
The dusk paints sails in rose and grey
Harbor postcard, memory lingers
You breathe the salt and walk away
Harbor postcard, light on water
The harbor keeps what you gave today
You breathe the salt and walk away
The harbor keeps the postcard safe
