Track Insight / Lyrics
You sit in splintered pine at dawn
Dust coats the lens you wake upon
Highway 66 hums low and deep
Motel sign flickers in its sleep
Rocking chair keeps steady time
Click the shutter, catch the climb
Light bleeds across the adobe wall
You don't need to leave at all
Bus ticket burns inside your coat
Snap the wind, the goat, the note
Turquoise sky splits telephone wire
Frame the heat, the dust, the fire
Rocking chair keeps steady time
Click the shutter, catch the climb
Light bleeds across the adobe wall
You don't need to leave at all
Owner waves from screen door shade
Coffee steams in chipped glaze
You load the roll, advance the frame
Santa Fe remembers your name
Rocking chair keeps steady time
Click the shutter, catch the climb
Light bleeds across the adobe wall
You don't need to leave at all
Shadows stretch on cracked concrete
Developing in noon's white heat
Negative holds what eyes let go
Veranda watches, soft and slow
Rocking chair keeps steady time
Click the shutter, catch the climb
Light bleeds across the adobe wall
You don't need to leave at all
Rocking chair keeps steady time
Click the shutter, catch the climb
Frame hangs drying on the line
Veranda in Santa Fe
