Track Insight / Lyrics
Cold wind bites the grey stone wall
You watch the winter snowflakes fall
You spot a glint of polished gold
A heavy secret to behold
It rolls along the frozen street
Below the rush of walking feet
A brassy tube of ancient sight
Catching all the morning light
Oh, look through the brass telescope
A silver line, a sudden hope
Spin the dial and find the star
Seeing things from very far
You pick it up and wipe the haze
A tiny lens, a golden blaze
The alley turns a deeper blue
A hidden world is coming through
Oh, look through the brass telescope
A silver line, a sudden hope
Spin the dial and find the star
Seeing things from very far
The bus is humming down the lane
A sudden streak of winter rain
We stand so close, we barely breathe
While all the city colors weave
You tilt the glass toward the sky
A flashing spark, a bird's wing high
You hold the lens against your eye
And watch the frozen moments fly
I take a photo of your face
A sudden spark, a quiet grace
We share the view of distant shores
The open street is finally yours
Oh, look through the brass telescope
A silver line, a sudden hope
Spin the dial and find the star
Seeing things from very far
Just one more shot, just one more frame
A golden flash, a sudden game
(Click, flash, gold)
