Track Insight / Lyrics
Streetlights bleedin' on the wet black tar
Another late shift, drivin' not so far
Motel neon hummin' a lonely tune
Just a baker and the comin' moon
Dough is risin', oven's glowin' red
Same routine, same thoughts inside my head
Empty streets and whispers in the breeze
Another night of sugar and unease
Rain is fallin', washin' worries down
This old taxi, my kingdom in this town
Watchin' headlights paint the parking lot
Hopin' somethin' good is what I've got
Neon shelter, a flicker and a sign
Keeps the darkness from creepin' into mine
Sweetest comfort under a plastic sky
Just a night baker watchin' the world roll by
Folks check in, shadows at the door
Stories linger, never heard before
Runaway lovers, salesmen worn and grey
Every face a chapter of yesterday
Rain is fallin', washin' worries down
This old taxi, my kingdom in this town
Watchin' headlights paint the parking lot
Hopin' somethin' good is what I've got
Neon shelter, a flicker and a sign
Keeps the darkness from creepin' into mine
Sweetest comfort under a plastic sky
Just a night baker watchin' the world roll by
Steam is risin' from a paper cup
Black coffee strong, wakin' me up
Each loaf a promise, warm and golden brown
Spreadin' sweetness all over this town
Years have passed, seen a lot of rain
Learned that nothin' stays the same again
But the smell of bread, it fills the air
A little piece of heaven, beyond compare
Neon shelter, a flicker and a sign
Keeps the darkness from creepin' into mine
Sweetest comfort under a plastic sky
Just a night baker watchin' the world roll by
First light breakin', a pale, dusty hue
Another mornin', startin' somethin' new
Wipin' down the counter, feelin' kinda free
Just a baker and his bakery
Neon shelter, a flicker and a sign
Keeps the darkness from creepin' into mine
Sweetest comfort under a plastic sky
Just a night baker watchin' the world roll by
Streetlights fade, the day begins to bloom
Just a baker, fightin' off the gloom
Neon's buzzin', a soft and steady grace
Findin' peace in this forgotten place.
