Track Insight / Lyrics
You walk the span where mist clings low
The river breathes a silver ghost
Your fingers find the cold steel rail
Two gloves sit waiting at your feet
Leather on the rail holds morning light
Stitching sings in alto hush now
River keeps its ancient rhythm tight
You breathe the way the choir taught us
The wool still holds the shape of hands
That gripped the hymnal, turned the page
Now river wind unwinds the strand
Of breath you held through winter's age
Leather on the rail holds morning light
Stitching sings in alto hush now
River keeps its ancient rhythm tight
You breathe the way the choir taught us
Mist lifts the scent of oil and rain
From palms that folded, palm to palm
The bridge vibrates with passing train
A low note humming through the calm
Leather on the rail holds morning light
Stitching sings in alto hush now
River keeps its ancient rhythm tight
You breathe the way the choir taught us
River sings no hymn beneath the bridge
Just water moving past the ridge
You pull the leather over knuckles pale
The matching glove completes the tale
Altos hum in muscle memory
Two hands made whole by history
Now both gloves warm against the steel
You lean above the rushing dark
The mist uncurls, reveals the wheel
Of current turning, leave its mark
Leather on the rail holds morning light
Stitching sings in alto hush now
River keeps its ancient rhythm tight
You breathe the way the choir taught us
Leather on the rail, you wear the song
Leather on the rail holds on
Stitching sings in alto hush
You breathe the way the choir taught us
