Track Insight / Lyrics
Steel frame leans against the wall
Winter makes the spirit small
Rubber tires on frozen grit
Where the dying streetlamps lit
I've driven fares through every gale
The winter wind is like a flail
You look like a ghost in the grey
Waiting for the light of day
Huddle deep in the alley way
Where the frozen colors stay
Hold the breath till the shiver ends
Where the crooked corner bends
Ice is biting through the glove
Cold is all I've learned to love
Pedal push through heavy sleet
On these jagged granite street
Huddle deep in the alley way
Where the frozen colors stay
Hold the breath till the shiver ends
Where the crooked corner bends
A copper coin, a heavy coat
A dry old song within the throat
The meter clicks, the wheels spin round
While the frost claims all the ground
The city is a hungry beast
On the lonely it will feast
Take a seat in the leather chair
Leave the winter in the air
Old proverbs say the sun will rise
Though the fog blinds tired eyes
Dry your skin and warm your hand
In this hollow, salted land
Huddle deep in the alley way
Where the frozen colors stay
Hold the breath till the shiver ends
Where the crooked corner bends
Cold stone, old bone.
Ride slow, wind blow.
Ride slow.
