Track Insight / Lyrics
Rain-kissed wooden planks beneath my feet
Every step, stories in my feet
Of keepers and the crew, long gone and free
Echoes in the bayou breeze
So I'll strum this old guitar low
As crickets serenade the bayou's low
In twilight's hush, my spirit thrums
The ghosts of men who came from somewhere else hum
Oh, twilit sparkles dance and play
On Louisiana's bayou bay
In the quiet night, I'll find my way
Home to me, wherever I may roam away
Golden days of medals, sail and steel
Cries of gulls, and the salt sea smell
Now, in this twilight, I'm the last one here
Fading light, the only sound is fear
So I'll strum this old guitar low
As crickets serenade the bayou's low
In twilight's hush, my spirit thrums
The ghosts of men who came from somewhere else hum
Oh, twilit sparkles dance and play
On Louisiana's bayou bay
In the quiet night, I'll find my way
Home to me, wherever I may roam away
I see you there, in that willow tree
When the world turns dark blue to me
I'll beckon you to come ashore
Hand in hand, as it was before
Oh, twilit sparkles dance and play
On Louisiana's bayou bay
In the quiet night, I'll find my way
Home to me, wherever I may roam away
Dusk is deep, the moon is high
I'll play all night, sing 'til I'm dry
My song is lost, yet it's not in vain
For in the music, love remains
