Track Insight / Lyrics
Found the book beneath the stair
Red cover faded, salt in hair
Summer ninety-seven scrawled
Pages stuck where water curled
Salt Notebook holds the tide
Salt Notebook, nowhere to hide
Lamp light flickers, ink runs deep
Promises we could not keep
Margaret's name in blue ballpoint
Kisses stolen, joint to joint
Ferris wheel at Ocean Pier
Salt water tangled in her hair
Salt Notebook holds the tide
Salt Notebook, nowhere to hide
Lamp light flickers, ink runs deep
Promises we could not keep
Storm came in October late
Broke the glass and smashed the gate
I stayed watching, she drove south
Salt Notebook in her mouth
Salt Notebook holds the tide
Salt Notebook, nowhere to hide
Lamp light flickers, ink runs deep
Promises we could not keep
Now the light is automated
Tourists climb where I once waited
Pages dry and brittle now
Salt Notebook shows me how
Salt Notebook holds the tide
Salt Notebook, nowhere to hide
Lamp light flickers, ink runs deep
Promises we could not keep
Salt Notebook holds the tide
Salt Notebook, nowhere to hide
Salt in the binding stays
Salt in the binding stays
