Track Insight / Lyrics

He lays the compass on the pine Silver catches dawn's first line Kettle sings a tired tune Morning breaks the window soon Silver needle steam and light Points to where he slept last night No fare to call no street to know Just which way the warm winds blow Brass rim worn from decades past Memories hold the needle fast Forty years of turns and stops Etched in grooves on metal tops Silver needle steam and light Points to where he slept last night No fare to call no street to know Just which way the warm winds blow Passenger once gave him this Keeps you true when streets go missed Now the kitchen holds the prize Reflected in his weary eyes Silver needle steam and light Points to where he slept last night No fare to call no street to know Just which way the warm winds blow No meter running no dispatch Just the whistle just the match Compass spins then finds the north Worth more than all the miles forth Tea steams up the silver face Time to rest time to embrace Needle settles quiet still Points toward home and always will Silver needle steam and light Points to where he slept last night No fare to call no street to know Just which way the warm winds blow Silver needle true and bright Holds him through the long goodbye Needle rests the journey done Kitchen light the rising sun
