Track Insight / Lyrics
Raindrops on a rusty watering can
Glisten like a secret, antique pan
Standing guard on the edge of the forest dark
Where telephone poles rise, like sentinels embark
Midnight whispers through the branches sway
Sotto voce, a murmured, ancient way
Of sharing truths and ancient, astral sighs
Through fronds of fir and dripping twilight skies
Oh, watchful maestro of water and earth
Keeper of the midnight's hushed rebirth
In the pine's embrace, you stand tall
Syncing rain and trees, through it all
Beneath the eaves and knotty, moss-draped trunks
A hidden world of life and ancient hunks
Of stardust we're made - the treetops know
As rain falls steady, like a widow's woe
Midnight whispers through the branches sway
Sotto voce, a murmured, ancient way
Of sharing truths and astral, secret sighs
Through fronds of fir and dripping twilight skies
Oh, watchful maestro of water and earth
Keeper of the midnight's hushed rebirth
In the pine's embrace, you stand tall
Syncing rain and trees, through it all
In this cathedral of night's cathedral song
Where piety and science tangle, all wrong
The trees' deep wisdom meets your metal heart
Weathering storms, you never depart
Oh, watchful maestro of water and earth
Keeper of the midnight's hushed rebirth
In the pine's embrace, you stand tall
Syncing rain and trees, through it all
Rain dwindles, darkness recedes, the dawn
Brings light to woods, the watchful task is done.
The rusty can returns to rest once more
As morning sun and light, the night restore.
