Track Insight / Lyrics
Canals whisper stories old,
Stone by stone, a tale unfolds.
Rochester dreams in lilac haze,
Sun-drenched water, golden days.
You trace the brick, a weathered hand,
Each rising gate, a promised land.
*Salix alba*, bending low,
Watching currents ebb and flow.
Lock and lilac, time suspends,
Where water mirrors, beauty transcends.
A silent garden, softly sighs,
Reflected glory in your eyes.
The lock keeper's lodge, a faded green,
Lost in memory, a bygone scene.
*Syringa vulgaris*, scent so sweet,
Dust motes dancing at your feet.
Lock and lilac, time suspends,
Where water mirrors, beauty transcends.
A silent garden, softly sighs,
Reflected glory in your eyes.
The towpath calls, a winding way,
Where sunlight filters through the spray.
Observe the *Lemna minor* gleam,
A tiny world within a dream.
Lock and lilac, time suspends,
Where water mirrors, beauty transcends.
A silent garden, softly sighs,
Reflected glory in your eyes.
Concrete cradles water's grace,
A tranquil, meditative space.
Feel the cool stone, worn and true,
A gentle solace waits for you.
A shifting light, a whispered plea,
For roots to run wild and be free.
The ancient gears, a rusty song,
Turning slowly, all day long.
A patient rhythm, calm and deep,
Secrets that the water keeps.
Lock and lilac, time suspends,
Where water mirrors, beauty transcends.
A silent garden, softly sighs,
Reflected glory in your eyes.
Stone and blossom, soft and slow,
Let the lilac fragrance flow.
Lock and lilac, fade to gray,
Rochester dreaming, slips away.
