Track Insight / Lyrics
Grey December breathing slow,
Cobbles gleaming, winter's glow.
A hush descends on alley stone,
Where a weary tug finds harbor home.
You pull up tight against the wall,
Shadows lengthen, start to fall.
Diesel heart begins to rest,
A steel embrace, a welcome guest.
The cold seeps in, a biting kiss,
But here you're safe from ocean's abyss.
Stone and steel, a winter's keep,
Where troubled waters fall asleep.
The harbor sighs, a frosted plea,
Shelter found for you and me.
A quiet strength, a muted grace,
In this forgotten, hidden place.
Rust blooms softly on your bow,
Stories whispered, soft and low.
Of storms weathered, journeys done,
Battles fought beneath the sun.
Each dent a mark, a rugged sign,
Of a life lived on the rolling brine.
Stone and steel, a winter's keep,
Where troubled waters fall asleep.
The harbor sighs, a frosted plea,
Shelter found for you and me.
A quiet strength, a muted grace,
In this forgotten, hidden place.
The lamplight flickers, weak and frail,
Painting patterns on your rail.
A lonely watch, a silent vow,
To guide lost ships somehow.
The world outside may rage and roam,
But you are anchored, safe at home.
Stone and steel, a winter's keep,
Where troubled waters fall asleep.
The harbor sighs, a frosted plea,
Shelter found for you and me.
A quiet strength, a muted grace,
In this forgotten, hidden place.
First snow descends, a gentle shroud,
Muffling the city's restless crowd.
The cobblestones, a silver sheen,
A peaceful, almost holy scene.
A moment held, a breath so deep,
Before the world awakens from its sleep.
You dream of currents, strong and free,
Of open ocean, wild with glee.
Of distant shores and skies so wide,
But for tonight, you gently ride.
A silent guardian, steadfast and true,
Waiting for the morning's brand new hue.
Stone and steel, a winter's keep,
Where troubled waters fall asleep.
The harbor sighs, a frosted plea,
Shelter found for you and me!
A quiet strength, a muted grace,
In this forgotten, hidden place.
Cobbles gleam, a fading light,
Stone and steel, in the winter night.
A silent harbor, still and gray,
Waiting for a brighter day.
Slowly thinning… stone and steel…
Winter's peace, forever real.
