Track Insight / Lyrics

Old oil lamps keep the window bright Watching salt spray in the dead of night The garden gate is locked with a chain Hiding a secret from the winter rain A faded postcard in the wild green The kind of story that is seldom seen Guarding the workshop where the ivy grows Holding a promise that the shoreline knows The ink is pale on a yellow page A quiet bird in a rusted cage Tucked in the dirt where the brambles creep While the old harbor is fast asleep I spent my years by the crashing foam Building a wall to call this place a home But in the weeds there is something more A piece of paper from a distant shore A faded postcard in the wild green The kind of story that is seldom seen Guarding the workshop where the ivy grows Holding a promise that the shoreline knows The salt air bites and the timber bends This is the place where the long road ends I read the words that the ocean sent Knowing exactly where the feeling went I leave the card where the clover blooms Far from the cold of the lighthouse rooms It keeps the ghost of a summer day Before the current swept it all away A faded postcard in the wild green The kind of story that is seldom seen Guarding the workshop where the ivy grows Holding a promise that the shoreline knows Just a scrap of paper in the dew Still keeping watch for something new Still keeping watch.
