Track Insight / Lyrics
Sweep the worn wooden planks,
Polish every worn detail in,
Salt air stinging, paints the day,
Windswept, lonely, but I linger here on the edge.
In the fading light, your shadow creeps,
As I hone the craftsman's careful steps,
Through the scattered cobbles, the peeling signs,
Each rhythmic stroke and scrape's a rhyme.
And the city's glow, it steadily climbs,
Up the pier, where the leather meets the lines,
At the velvet dusk, where the world confines,
Our midnight dance, our secret designs.
We sway to the cadence of the waves and time,
Kissing forecasts and the wind's true crime,
Every stitch, every edge, a lover's crime,
In the harbour's heart, where we'll lose all timing.
At the nautical knots, in the worn-out grooves,
The stories hide, of the sailors' economical uses,
Of dreams that sunk, with the fortunes it loots,
Of treasure Map's squiggles, in the trespassing planks of the boots.
Where ancient tales of adventures bind,
The cobbler's hand gives each sole a mind,
Of far-off places, of battles fought in time,
Of destinies pursued, through the tide's rhyme.
And the city's glow, it steadily climbs,
Up the pier, where the leather meets the lines,
At the velvet dusk, where the world confines,
Our midnight dance, our secret designs.
We sway to the cadence of the waves and time,
Kissing forecasts and the wind's true crime,
Every stitch, every edge, a lover's crime,
In the harbour's heart, where we'll lose all timing.
From the pier to the bridge, a midnight walk,
Where our soulful echoes mix with the raven's call,
In the harbour's symphony, our love's subtle talk,
Harmonising with the wind, in this a cappella hall.
Waves and time, entwined in our dance,
Crime of the kiss, where our hearts enthrance,
In the harbour's heart, where we'll lose all timing,
Here, your love, is my only rhyming.
808 and synth fade, leather on leather creak,
Pier's worn planks, the wind whispers secrets sweet,
Our footsteps beating, staccato, in the night,
In the harbour's edge, where our love takes flight.
