Track Insight / Lyrics
Midnight shifts at the diner, (6)
Coffee grounds and grease, the smell of heat, (7)
Regulars come and go with worn-out jokes and worn-out feet, (10)
While I quietly dream of mice beneath the counter's beat. (8)
Daylight bleeds through dusty blinds, (7)
As my eyes adjust, the world unwinds, (7)
And I find solace in the quiet place I hide, (8)
Where stories soothe the restless mind. (6)
So I curl up tight beside the attic window high, (8)
Watching sunbeams dance upon forgotten memories, (9)
As the world awakens from its night awake, (8)
My heart grows warm with peace, and all is well, awake. (7)
Neighbors' morning chatter fades, (6)
As titbits of tales from pages engaged, (7)
A worn leather armchair, a cup of cold tea, (7)
Are all I need to find solace in this ecstatic glee. (8)
Daylight bleeds through dusty blinds, (7)
As my eyes adjust, the world unwinds, (7)
And I find solace in the quiet place I hide, (8)
Where stories soothe the restless mind. (6)
So I curl up tight beside the attic window high, (8)
Watching sunbeams dance upon forgotten memories, (9)
As the world awakens from its night awake, (8)
My heart grows warm with peace, and all is well, awake. (7)
The scent of old paper and sun-kissed floorboards fade,
As books on shelves stretch up to the ceiling's shade,
And in this sanctum safe from noise and time,
I find my spirit revels in the simple rhyme.
So I curl up tight beside the attic window high, (8)
Watching sunbeams dance upon forgotten memories, (9)
As the world awakens from its night awake, (8)
My heart grows warm with peace, and all is well, awake. (7)
Sunbeams play, catching dust behind the glass, (7)
As the world's rhythm keeps its steady pace,
Our bookstore cat still dreams, (6)
Of mice and stories, sunbeams racing past. (7)
