Track Insight / Lyrics
The wind it sighs a lonely tune,
Above the Springs, beneath the moon.
A granite giant, cold and grey,
Pikes Peak watches night and day.
I've kept the lamp for fifty year,
Seen seasons change, and held them dear.
This mountain's breath, a frosty grace,
A silent power in this place.
Below, the city's gentle gleam,
Lost in a half-forgotten dream.
But up here, the stars ignite,
A boundless ocean in the night.
Pikes Peak rising, strong and free,
A watchful guardian over me.
Stone and sky in quiet hold,
A story whispered, ages old.
The snow descends, a silver sheet,
Covering the world beneath my feet.
The city sleeps, a distant hum,
While winter's kingdom has begun.
Below, the city's gentle gleam,
Lost in a half-forgotten dream.
But up here, the stars ignite,
A boundless ocean in the night.
Pikes Peak rising, strong and free,
A watchful guardian over me.
Stone and sky in quiet hold,
A story whispered, ages old.
I trace the trails with weathered hand,
Across this wild and rugged land.
Each twisted pine, a silent friend,
Until the very bitter end.
They say a summit holds the key,
To all the world for you to see.
But truth is found in stillness deep,
The secrets that the mountains keep.
Pikes Peak rising, strong and free,
A watchful guardian over me.
Stone and sky in quiet hold,
A story whispered, ages old.
The sun ascends, a golden hue,
Washing the peaks in morning dew.
Another day begins to bloom,
Dispelling shadows, chasing gloom.
Pikes Peak rising, strong and free,
A watchful guardian over me.
Stone and sky in quiet hold,
A story whispered, ages old.
The lamp still turns, a steady light,
Guiding lost souls through the night.
Pikes Peak watches, ever near,
A quiet promise, year by year.
