Track Insight / Lyrics
Leather creaks as fingers curl around the pole
Auburn yarn fraying, time's relentless roll
Gloves once snug now loose, skin beneath exposed
Autumn leaves rustling, twilight's closing pose
Moonlit breeze whispers secrets in my ear
Of love's fleeting touch, and winter's bitter year
In the heartbeat pause between the day's last light
I'll trace these worn lines, and hold the darkness tight
When the gloves come off, will you stay?
Or let the cold fall in, and drive this summer's sway?
Among the telephone poles, will you find a place
To weather winter's grasp, and hold my moment in time and space?
Nail heads glint with dew, a constellation vast
Pine branches stretch towards stars that will not last
The forest's ancient heartbeat is a lullaby
A pulse that echoes through these gloves, now almost dry
Moonlit breeze whispers secrets in my ear
Of love's fleeting touch, and winter's bitter year
In the heartbeat pause between the day's last light
I'll trace these worn lines, and hold the darkness tight
When the gloves come off, will you stay?
Or let the cold fall in, and drive this summer's sway?
Among the telephone poles, will you find a place
To weather winter's grasp, and hold my moment in time and space?
Shoulder to shoulder, side by side
Underneath the forest canopy tonight
As stars slip behind the hills, we'll walk and talk
Of summer's heat and winter's cold, and all the seasons' walks
When the gloves come off, will you stay?
Or let the cold fall in, and drive this summer's sway?
Among the telephone poles, will you find a place
To weather winter's grasp, and hold my moment in time and space?
In the silence of the frozen night
Leather fraying, love will be the light
Keeping ghostly warmth, and casting shadows deep
As I hold these gloves, and the memories they keep
