Track Insight / Lyrics
Bright city lights reflect on clothes so fine
Rhinelander boots tracing tar-streaked piers
Dusk descends on wharves where dreams collide
Sydney's margins, where shadows step aside
Windswept cries dispel the fading day
In smoke and mirrors, tattered love strays
No ghosts remain when sunlight fades to grey
Dusk swallows secrets, as the city sways
In the harbour's lap, I find my reprieve
Velvet gloved and unknown, yet wild and free
Whispers echo, from the night's disguise
Of lovers, heartbeats, and city sighs
Staring out to sea, I watch the ships depart
Each a secret voyage, though I'll never chart
The mystery of souls within the hold
Their fates and yearnings, tales as yet untold
Windswept cries dispel the fading day
In smoke and mirrors, tattered love strays
No ghosts remain when sunlight fades to grey
Dusk swallows secrets, as the city sways
In the harbour's lap, I find my reprieve
Velvet gloved and unknown, yet wild and free
Whispers echo, from the night's disguise
Of lovers, heartbeats, and city sighs
Ghost trombones, congas, and snares ignite
Infectious rhythms, dancing in the night
From Circular Quay to the Opera House
Lanterns glowing, as the night disperses
In the city's pulse, I hear my voice
A fragile melody, in the urban choice
In the harbour's lap, I find my reprieve
Velvet gloved and unknown, yet wild and free
Whispers echo, from the night's disguise
Of lovers, heartbeats, and city sighs
Faded Polaroids on a windowsill
Gloved hands eject the lens cap still
Late night plans, in Sydney's glamorous thrall
