Track Insight / Lyrics

I found it resting on the pier wood Black keys sleeping where the gulls stood Ribbon dried by wind and weather Letters stuck like shells together Salt on keys and tide won't wait Dawn writes stories on the gate Ferry dock holds what the sea creates Salt on keys decides our fate Carriage frozen in the cold air Paper gone but words stay there Space bar heavy with the brine Shift key rusted but still mine Salt on keys and tide won't wait Dawn writes stories on the gate Ferry dock holds what the sea creates Salt on keys decides our fate Platen roller cracked and yellow Holds no manuscript fellow Bell don't ring for margin set Just the rhythm of the wet Salt on keys and tide won't wait Dawn writes stories on the gate Ferry dock holds what the sea creates Salt on keys decides our fate I lift it gentle from the slime Clean the corrosion given time Oil the joints with lantern grease Make the stubborn machine release Forty years I kept the light Watched the storms tear through the night Now I tend a different craft Words that float and words that last First key strikes and sounds so clear T rings out across the pier H follows with a hollow tone E comes third to make it known Salt on keys and tide won't wait Dawn writes stories on the gate Ferry dock holds what the sea creates Salt on keys decides our fate Salt on keys decides our fate The tide keeps typing on
