Grease is thick on the grill tonight
Coffee burns in the plastic pot
Wooden oars hit the asphalt white
Water fills up the vacant lot
Sailing past the rusted screen
Searching for a flicker light
Salty water, velvet sheen
Rowing through the dead of night
Tattered tickets float on the bay
Salty air hits the popcorn stand
Heavy clouds turn the midnight gray
Oars are digging through river sand
Sailing past the rusted screen
Searching for a flicker light
Salty water, velvet sheen
Rowing through the dead of night
Empty cars line the water shore
Chrome is peeling from every door
I can't stand the same shift anymore
I just want to find something more
Sailing past the rusted screen
Searching for a flicker light
Salty water, velvet sheen
Rowing through the dead of night
Wooden boat hits a concrete curb
Quiet water is hard to stir
Midnight blue is a heavy blur
I can feel a soft rhythmic purr
Sailing past the rusted screen
Searching for a flicker light
Salty water, velvet sheen
Rowing through the dead of night
Just a rowboat in the dark.
Closing time at the drive-in park.
