Track Insight / Lyrics
You're standing solo 'neath the rusty buoy
Red lighthouse lamp, its beam a dry hue
Sawdust scattered on the weathered boards
The night's spent tales you now reluctantly pour
Warm sea breeze stirs the shadows cast
As time ticks on, the dawn finds you at last
No harbor lights to guide your steps tonight
But the compass in your hand's steady light
Oh, the dolphins dance 'neath the rising rays
As you breathe the salt, the dawn breaks away
From the shadows, whispers fade, dreams release
In this pivotal dawn, you find release
Faded nautical flags on poles stand tall
The call of gulls, the lighthouse's steady squall
The smell of engine grease, of marine store
Your worn leather chronicles, who you've adored
Warm sea breeze stirs the shadows cast
As time ticks on, the dawn finds you at last
No harbor lights to guide your steps tonight
But the compass in your hand's steady light
Oh, the dolphins dance 'neath the rising rays
As you breathe the salt, the dawn breaks away
From the shadows, whispers fade, dreams release
In this pivotal dawn, you find release
This weary sailor's heart, once north and true
Now drifts on the currents as you pursue
An arriving horizon where tomorrow's shore
The only solace from a heart that's adored
Oh, the dolphins dance 'neath the rising rays
As you breathe the salt, the dawn breaks away
From the shadows, whispers fade, dreams release
In this pivotal dawn, you find release
As morning glows on your battle-weary face
You know this fleeting peace right here's your new place
The lonely dock, the endless sea
These shadows dancing, setting you free.
