Track Insight / Lyrics
Ferry slips away, just out of reach
Paint's worn smooth, copper's black as grief
Steady rhythm of the tide
Lulls the city into slumber's side
Squint in neon's artificial light
Faded town, a lonely visage tonight
Where the lost and lonely call their homes
In city hearts that still wander, roam
Leather elbows, tracing lines
On empty docks where dreams decline
Moonlight kisses, ferry's sigh
Forever chasing, but never fly
Whispers echo from the walls
Secrets confined, like echoes' calls
Siren's song, a haunting air
Lures the wanderers to the shore there
Squint in neon's artificial light
Faded town, a lonely visage tonight
Where the lost and lonely call their homes
In city hearts that still wander, roam
Leather elbows, tracing lines
On empty docks where dreams decline
Moonlight kisses, ferry's sigh
Forever chasing, but never fly
Maybe someday, I'll sail away
Escape the life that's all faded gray
Memorized by moonbeams on stone
But for now, just polish, alone
Leather elbows, tracing lines
On empty docks where dreams decline
Moonlight kisses, ferry's sigh
Forever chasing, but never fly
(Fading instrumentation, final electric piano chord)
Nights of grease and coffee fumes
Leather trims my elbows home
Polishing gleams in moonlight bright
This dock is where my dreams take flight
