Track Insight / Lyrics
Clouds awake above the water's breast
Softly glowing 'neath the evening mist
Baptisia tinctoria sways to the breeze
As dusk descends, forgiving all the day's unease
Shaded porch and cypress trees, whispers on the wind
Crawdad season's end, the cypress knees now unseen
Sycamore trees bend low, their feet in the stream
Quieting day, the Sentinels of our slumbering dream
Cicadas wearily begin
Nature's lullaby of summer's end
Insects' serenade
Rustling leaves, they dare not play
Shadows softly creep upon the bayou shore
Unseen dangers slither in the twilight, evermore
In the dance of darkness and the light
The timeless dance plays through the bayou's veil tonight
Nelumbo nucifera flowers, a fleeting loving
Espoonia leucantha's beauty soon to losing
Iris virginica and Campanula siphonosis
As the midges dance, the pollinators busy
[Pre- Cicadas wearily begin
Nature's lullaby of summer's end Insects' serenade
Rustling leaves, they dare not play
Shadows softly creep upon the bayou shore
Unseen dangers slither in the twilight, evermore
In the dance of darkness and the light
The timeless dance plays through the bayou's veil tonight
Lightning bugs begin their twinkling show
As fireflies reveal the secret paths below
Coyotes calling, a haunting howl in the distance
Mexican Buckeye seeds ready for the winter's silence
Shadows softly creep and hide the cypress tall
Unseen dangers wait beneath the bayou's call
In the dance of dark and light, eternal sway
On this haunted, mystic bayou, I'll await the dawn of day
Clouds drift lazily across the water's sheen
The cypress trees now shadows of the dream
Bayou's magic lingers as the mist departs
Until next time, when the cycle starts.
