Track Insight / Lyrics
He steers the rig through midnight spray
Gulls scream above the broken pier
Diesel coughs in cold display
Tide pulls the nets he holds dear
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
Harbor light paints the steel
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
He drives until the dawn is real
Logbook open on his knee
Coffee steams in a dented tin
Radio sings static sea
Mile markers count where he has been
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
Harbor light paints the steel
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
He drives until the dawn is real
Ropes coil wet on splintered wood
Lantern swings on a rusted chain
He checks the straps the way he should
Night shifts slow like winter rain
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
Harbor light paints the steel
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
He drives until the dawn is real
Wipers dance a frantic beat
Clearing glass for one more mile
Dawn bleeds gold on concrete street
Engine sighs a low profile
Pier light dims in rearview glass
Salt crust cracks as wheels turn free
Long haul done, the night will pass
Home waits where the elm trees be
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
Harbor light paints the steel
Salt on the windshield, salt on the wheel
He drives until the dawn is real
Salt on the windshield,
