Track Insight / Lyrics
From chimney to cornice high
You've stood and watched the world go by
Dressed in red and green for winter's reign
Guarding the orchard's secret shame
Freezing mist veils the fading light
Drizzle smears your gleaming sight
Swaying gently in the bitter breeze
A sentinel of autumn's plea
Nightwatcher, sentinel of the tree
Patron of mysteries at dusk to be
Copper heart beats steadfast true
Guardian of the dreams we pursue
Through frost and fog and winter's might
You've kept your vigil through the night
A steadfast friend in seasons cold
Harbinger of tales yet untold
Keen eyes scan the shifting play
Of shadows dancing on the gray
Ears attuned to whispers on the wind
A faithful watcher, ever aligned
Nightwatcher, sentinel of the tree
Patron of mysteries at dusk to be
Copper heart beats steadfast true
Guardian of the dreams we pursue
In hidden chambers of the mind
Lies your domain where visions entwine
Secrets breathed upon the air
Unspoken truths for those who care
Nightwatcher, sentinel of the tree
Patron of mysteries at dusk to be
Copper heart beats steadfast true
Guardian of the dreams we pursue
As night deepens, mist obscures
Your vigilant gaze through winter cured
Yet still and steadfast, quiet, still
Dreams whisper secrets to your heartwood's will
