Track Insight / Lyrics
Raindrops kiss the lantern tops
Parisian roofs glossy in the dark
My feathers shine like jet
A silent wingbeat never marks
The city's heartbeat starting soft
A bassline murmurs through the night
Oh, ain't no ordinary sight
Misty alleys wrapped in light
The dacha's iron lace unfurls
As I glide on whirring wings
In the silence of the night
I'm the phantom of the tower's height
Shadows cast by cobblestones
Dance upon the dripping walls
The syncopated rhythm flows
Punctuated by gutter drips and calls
I ride the thermals rising high
Above the rooftops, sewers sigh
Oh, ain't no ordinary sight
Misty alleys wrapped in light
The dacha's iron lace unfurls
As I glide on whirring wings
In the silence of the night
I'm the phantom of the tower's height
(Drag it out, yeah, feel the heat)
(Groove, everybody, let's move your feet)
Pulsing through the city's stream
That's where I'll forever be
I brave the night in velvety shrouds
The city's pulse, my guiltless crowds
I soar through factories and spires
Watching Paris sleep, her tireless fires
Weaving through the arrondissements
In an aerial waltz of shadows spun
Oh, ain't no ordinary night
Misty alleys kissed by light
The dacha's iron lace unfurls
As I glide on whirring wings
In the silence of the fight
I'm the phantom of the tower's height
Oh, ain't no ordinary sight
Misty alleys wrapped in light
The dacha's iron lace unfurls
As I glide on whirring wings
In the silence of the night
I'm the phantom of the tower's height
As Paris awakes to golden dawns
I'll slip away, leaving only songs
Echoing memories of our nocturnal dance
As I fade into the morning's chance.
