Track Insight / Lyrics
This foxlike hound with eyes of jade
Lurking dockside, frozen in stillness
His heart beats one, two, three, four
On rugged wood, where fishing nets billow
Rays of orange pierce through heavy cloud
Gulls cry out, a mournful requiem
Beneath, the old dog's paws uncurl
As winter's chill begins to relent
He's weathering, through the morning's sting
Guarding dreams, as the world takes wing
Shouldering the weight of the sea's rhyme
In this harbor of sighs and sweet time
Rusted buoys clank in the tidal sway
Pier pilings rise like forgotten staves
The hound sighs and begins to roam
Seeking scents on the salty breeze and foam
Rays of orange pierce through heavy cloud
Gulls cry out, a mournful requiem
Beneath, the old dog's paws uncurl
As winter's chill begins to relent
He's weathering, through the morning's sting
Guarding dreams, as the world takes wing
Shouldering the weight of the sea's rhyme
In this harbor of sighs and sweet time
Net floats heal upon the rock
Tangles of lines tell stories untold
The dog's gaze sweeps the shoreline's stone
Where time-filled cracks mirror his own soul
In this tideswept cove, where moonlight gleams
He'll stand guard, while morning's light ascends
Through salt-kissed hair and distant dreams
For here the past and future blend
He's weathering, through the morning's sting
Guarding dreams, as the world takes wing
Shouldering the weight of the sea's rhyme
In this harbor of sighs and sweet time
As dawn unfurls its pink and gold
The hound turns, his secrets unspoken
Vanishing into the harbor's fold
Lost at sea, in the morning's token.
