Track Insight / Lyrics
Yellow envelope soaked through
Ink bleeds blue on fiber glue
Taxi idles, meter runs
Driver watches, morning comes
Pier holds fast what wind would steal
Paper heart with edges real
Bay don't care for love or loss
Only tide and iron cross
Fog rolls in on cable wire
Swallows Golden Gate's red fire
Letter doesn't blink or bend
Message written, message sent
Pier holds fast what wind would steal
Paper heart with edges real
Bay don't care for love or loss
Only tide and iron cross
Driver knows each pothole's name
Every fare leaves just the same
Storm passes, meter resets
Wet roads glow like cigarette
Pier holds fast what wind would steal
Paper heart with edges real
Bay don't care for love or loss
Only tide and iron cross
Gulls cry out in morning gray
Letter fades but holds its stay
Postmark blurred but address clear
Someone's words made it here
Seven years behind the wheel
Truth is what the rains reveal
Letters arrive when they arrive
Pier survives, it survives
Passenger pays, door slams shut
Driver's seen it all, but what
Keeps him watching through the glass
Letter waiting, letting pass
Pier holds fast what wind would steal
Paper heart with edges real
Bay don't care for love or loss
Only tide and iron cross
Pier holds fast what wind would steal
Paper heart with edges real
Bay don't care for love or loss
Only tide and iron cross
Rain stops. Meter clicks off.
Letter finds its way across.
