Track Insight / Lyrics
Pull up in a taxi, late at night
Heat's on full, windshield wipers bright
Step out onto the sidewalk, glisten cold
Down the block to where the laundromat's old
Wash and rinse repeat, aluminum hum
Rain comes down like talking drums
I find a chair on the covered porch
Rock back and forth, my thoughts a storm
Each droplet a footstep, rhythmic beat
Twenty-four hours, a restless repeat
In the mirrored glass, I see your face
As life cycles on, in this watery space
Raindrops on porchwood, tales untold
Echoes of the city, stories unfold
Rhythms of the night, confess my heart
In this laundromat, where love's apart
Ain't no dry spell when the rain's this deep
With every cupped palm, a secret I keep
Footsteps passing by, the bell above
I wonder if you're out there, thinking of love
On the creased receipts, scattered on the floor
A kaleidoscope of lives, forever more
In this space between, time stands as still
As the raindrops falling, the city's standing still
Each droplet a footstep, rhythmic beat
Twenty-four hours, a restless repeat
In the mirrored glass, I see your face
As life cycles on, in this watery space
Raindrops on porchwood, tales untold
Echoes of the city, stories unfold
Rhythms of the night, confess my heart
In this laundromat, where love's apart
We're ghosts of each other, passing through time
Traces of our fingers, intertwining dime
If raindrops hold the secret, to our lonely plight
Then I'll collect them all, like stars in the night
Raindrops on porchwood, tales untold
Echoes of the city, stories unfold
Rhythms of the night, confess my heart
In this laundromat, where love's apart
Rocking chair creaks, rain slows to a drizzle
In this city melody, I hear our middle
Footsteps fade, neon signs go dim
But I'll hold onto the rhythm, until we find our hymn.
