Track Insight / Lyrics
Sandy driveway gravel under my feet
As twilight casts shadows that meet
The worn leather of my battered compass
A beacon in the fading bliss
In neon puddles, streets alive with tonight's gleam
A weary traveler, silver hair streaking
Alone with visions of a distant shore
Where a rickety lighthouse stands forevermore
These gravel roads echo, worn from years of rain
I've followed every peak and every curve, in vain
But still I keep my gaze cast to the open sea
An even keel, a steady heart, that's all I need
Oh, light after dark, your guiding rays
When my compass fails, in twilight's maze
You're the beacon I need, the fire in my soul
To find my way, to reach my goals
The cedar posts that mark the coastal time
Whispers from the current, a melodic crime
To resist this siren's call, the craggy shore
But a lighthouse tender cannot be no more
These gravel roads echo, worn from years of rain
I've followed every peak and every curve, in vain
But still I keep my gaze cast to the open sea
An even keel, a steady heart, that's all I need
Oh, light after dark, your guiding rays
When my compass fails, in twilight's maze
You're the beacon I need, the fire in my soul
To find my way, to reach my goals
I'll walk these gravel miles, through rain or moon's pale glow
Where the lighthouse calls, I must go
And though the light may fade, it guides my way
Until I turn to face another dawn's display
Oh, light after dark, your guiding rays
When my compass fails, in twilight's maze
You're the beacon I need, the fire in my soul
To find my way, to reach my goals
Sandy driveway gravel under my feet
As twilight fades, the journey's sweet
In neon puddles, the light will lead
To where the salty sea birds come to feed.
