Track Insight / Lyrics
Raindrops on the windshield, like tears in the night
Ferry dock, watcher of dreams, no boat in sight
Your message, soaked in moonlight, slipped under my door
A promise, a secret, between us forevermore
In the hush of the morning, I'll keep watch for you
Under the neon shelter, with nothing to do
If the dawn's first light is too bright, I'll wait till the night
In the silence, your letter will hold me tight
Coffee in the diner's pot, hot and strong enough to stay
Talking to strangers, I weave in what you would say
We are the ghosts of the city, unnoticed and free
A story untold, two hearts beating out of rhythm, you and me
In the hush of the morning, I'll keep watch for you
Under the neon shelter, with nothing to do
If the dawn's first light is too bright, I'll wait till the night
In the silence, your letter will hold me tight
The city's alive in the streets, but I'd trade it all for you
Ferry docks and empty piers, lonely but hopeful too
With every raindrop falling, your words never fade
In my hands, your letter beats, like a heart still unafraid
I know that tonight is the night, the moment I've been awaiting
My ship will come in, driven by the rain, on a dance to its fate
Under the neon glow, where shadows play and hide
Two Souls will meet in the darkness, as the freight train slides
In the hush of the morning, I'll keep watch for you
Under the neon shelter, with nothing to do
If the dawn's first light is too bright, I'll wait till the night
In the silence, your letter will hold me tight
So let the stars shine down, as I sit and write
My reply, sealed with a kiss, carried away in the night
And when I see your sign, a mile away on the dock
I'll be racing towards you, under the neon's softrock.
