Track Insight / Lyrics
Red leaves cover Common ground
Quiet city, heavy sound
Brick and mortar, cold and gray
Watching autumn slip away
One gold coin for every mile
Stay a while, just stay a while
Silver needle, tangled deep
While the tired city sleep
Point me north to where I go
Where the winter waters flow
Found it wedged in frozen clay
Tangled in the workday fray
Broken glass and rusted chain
Washed away by autumn rain
One gold coin for every mile
Stay a while, just stay a while
Silver needle, tangled deep
While the tired city sleep
Point me north to where I go
Where the winter waters flow
I have driven every street
Where the salt and asphalt meet
Fares come in and fares go out
That is what the road's about
Hold the casing, feel the weight
Small enough to seal a fate
Tied to bricks of old Beacon
As the morning light is breakin'
Silver needle, tangled deep
While the tired city sleep
Point me north to where I go
Where the winter waters flow
Keep your eyes on where you stand
Hold the compass in your hand
Copper light on cobblestone
No one ever walks alone
Silver needle, tangled deep
While the tired city sleep
Point me north to where I go
Where the winter waters flow
Silver needle, point me home
Far away from city chrome
Point me north.
