Track Insight / Lyrics
Concrete booth, stained with coffee spills
The world slips by, just shadows and chills
Night shift ain't no place for love's soft gleam
But the moon it shines, like a beacon, a dream
Six lanes flowin', a restless stream
Each car a story, a hidden theme
This bayou road, it sighs and moans
Like a heart that aches, and can't be known
Take the toll, the bridge is high
Underneath, the cypress sigh
And the swamp cat's cryin' in the night
Beneath the neon, pale and bright
The truckers pass, with weary eyes
Haulin' secrets, beneath starlit skies
Every face a puzzle, I try to read
But the stories they tell, are best left unsaid
Six lanes flowin', a restless stream
Each car a story, a hidden theme
This bayou road, it sighs and moans
Like a heart that aches, and can't be known
Take the toll, the bridge is high
Underneath, the cypress sigh
And the swamp cat's cryin' in the night
Beneath the neon, pale and bright
The radio hums, a country tune
Of love and loss, beneath a harvest moon
But here beneath the bridge, the air is still
Just the sound of engines, on a lonely hill
The water laps, against the shore
This bayou blues, it whispers more
Than words can say, than souls can bear
A melody of sorrow, and lost desires there
Take the toll, the bridge is high
Underneath, the cypress sigh
And the swamp cat's cryin' in the night
Beneath the neon, pale and bright
Another shift done, another night
Underneath the moon's soft, silver light
The traffic thins, and silence descends
This bayou knows, what life attends
Take the toll, the bridge is high
Underneath, the cypress sigh
And the swamp cat's cryin' in the night
Beneath the neon, pale and bright
Fade to silence with slow blues slide guitar riff
