Track Insight / Lyrics
Dust motes dancin' in the pale cafe light
Another coffee brewin', holdin' back the night
Coeur d'Alene whispers on the wind tonight
Old wood creakin', feelin' kinda right
Pine trees standin' silent, watchin' water gleam
Islands sleepin' softly, lost inside a dream
Old man Hemlock's story, a forgotten stream
Said the spirits wander, it would seem
Fog rolls in, a blanket soft and grey
Hidin' secrets from another yesterday
Hear the loon call echo far away
Somethin' lingers, won't quite fade away
Lake island ghosts, they walk the shore
Seen in the mist, then seen no more
Lost in the pines, forevermore
Lake island ghosts, knockin' at your door
Tourists come and go, don't know what they miss
The quiet heart beatin' in the wilderness
Fishermen castin', searchin' for a bliss
But the real treasures hold a different kiss
Fog rolls in, a blanket soft and grey
Hidin' secrets from another yesterday
Hear the loon call echo far away
Somethin' lingers, won't quite fade away
Lake island ghosts, they walk the shore
Seen in the mist, then seen no more
Lost in the pines, forevermore
Lake island ghosts, knockin' at your door
Saw a flash of silver, out beyond the bay
Old woman Willow, slipped and floated away
Her laughter lingers, brighter every day
Said she's watchin' over, come what may
The water's holdin' memories deep and blue
Stories of the timbermen, honest and true
Lost loves and promises, shinin' through
Every ripple whispers, "I remember you."
Lake island ghosts, they walk the shore
Seen in the mist, then seen no more
Lost in the pines, forevermore
Lake island ghosts, knockin' at your door
Empty cabins standin', weathered and worn
Echoes of the families, since long since gone
The scent of woodsmoke lingers 'til the dawn
A lonely feeling, carryin' on
Lake island ghosts, they walk the shore
Seen in the mist, then seen no more
Lost in the pines, forevermore
Lake island ghosts, knockin' at your door!
Just the lake and the pines, and the fallin' night
Lake island ghosts, holdin' on tight
Another coffee brewin', feelin' alright
Lake island ghosts, bathed in pale moonlight.
