Track Insight / Lyrics

Rain falls hard on Beacon Hill bricks A letter rests on century-old clay Ink bleeds out in spiderweb tricks Words wash clean as tide pulls away Ink meets brick and surrenders now Rain writes new lines on keeper's brow Old hands know what tides erase Autumn wind finds every trace Brick sidewalk drinks each darkening line History holds wet paper fast Fountain pen yields to storm design No light shines through the overcast Name and address fade to gray smoke Date stamps blur like fog on glass Keeper reads what storm winds wrote Time dissolves what ink cannot pass Ink meets brick and surrenders now Rain writes new lines on keeper's brow Old hands know what tides erase Autumn wind finds every trace Forty years he watched the lens turn round Counted flashes through the worst gale force Now on land the water still finds ground Paper dies on historic course Last word vanishes in brick embrace Envelope surrenders to the rain Keeper nods at familiar grace Walks back home through Beacon lane Ink meets brick and surrenders now Rain writes final lines on keeper's brow Old hands know what tides erase Autumn wind finds every trace Salt remembers what paper forgets Brick keeps secrets ink regrets Footsteps echo on wet old brick Light flashes once from Charles River deep
