Track Insight / Lyrics
Summer dusk descends on the steel grates
Neon puddles shimmer where they converge
In the fire escape's narrow embrasure
A shimmering brass telescope
Patience is the measure of the night
Watching, waiting for what will take flight
A reluctant rendezvous of star and sky
Two worlds that rarely align
The concrete jungle whispers secrets low
To the telescope's velvet-draped eye
Of lovers meeting, stories untold,
Futures forged in a moment's sigh
Oh faithful sentinel of the dark
Guarding a thousand whispered hearts
In the iron's warm, embracing hold
Secrets, and the dreams they've been told
Crickets' sweet serenade drifts by
As city sounds recede into the night
A young couple, hand in love's sweet guide
Pausing there, beneath the twinkling light
Their eyes, a constellation now aglow
In the telescope's mineral gaze below
Fleeting beauty in a stolen glance
A love story unfolding at its dance
Oh faithful sentinel of the dark
Guarding a thousand whispered hearts
In the iron's warm, embracing hold
Secrets, and the dreams they've been told
Perhaps tonight, their love will alight
In the scope's lens, a celestial sight
One fleeting moment time forgets
In the vastness of the urban outskirts
Oh faithful sentinel of the dark
Guarding a thousand whispered hearts
In the iron's warm, embracing hold
Secrets, and the dreams they've been told
As morning's blush chases the shades away
The telescope's gaze slips back to the gray
Awaiting who will step up the stair
With a tale to be seen, or a prayer.
