Track Insight / Lyrics
Raindrops on yer violin, strings drawn to the city's gleaming streets
Neon soaked in sodium, dusk dissolves into mist
I'd trade my greenhouse dreams for tonight's Tokyo serenade
Each note a saturated anecdote, dripping with jade
Listen to the alley, secrets in the concrete notes
A melancholy minuet, symphony of forgot
Every intersection whispers stories, in the shadows they reside
Midnight melodies flutter, secrets' phantom tides
Tokyo's symphony shadows us, where umbrellas twist and turn
Rain fractured light on wet pavement, reflections burn
A solo dancer's footsteps weaving, joining our unheard refrain
In the Kyoto-born tonewoods, autumn leaves fall like rain
Listen to the alley, secrets in the concrete notes
A melancholy minuet, symphony of forgot
Every intersection whispers stories, in the shadows they reside
Midnight melodies flutter, secrets' phantom tides
Cigarette smoke curls and dances, a solo for shadows to sway
Hammond's chime, B3's punch, setting the pace for tonight's gray
Lonesome phrases unfolding, in the neon-lit unknown
Though the city hides its heartbeat, midnight is its own
Listen to the alley, secrets in the concrete notes
A melancholy minuet, symphony of forgot
Every intersection whispers stories, in the shadows they reside
Midnight melodies flutter, secrets' phantom tides
In the steam rising from the
manhole covers a hidden chorus hums
Muted brass sighs their harmonies, bassline throbs like murmurs
Every passerby leaves a legacy, in the wet alleys they walk
Leaving their haiku and their stories, for the night to unroll
Listen to the alley, secrets in the concrete notes
A melancholy minuet, symphony of forgot
Every intersection whispers stories, in the shadows they reside
Midnight melodies flutter, secrets' phantom tides
Gibson's arpeggios fade, rainfoam on the pavement
Leslies' undulation, horns' soft goodbye
In the melody's waltz, the night yields up its serenade
Whispers of Tokyo's heartbeat, forever in the alley's shade.
