Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] The mist is rising thin The day is moving in Dust on my weary skin Where do I begin? The keys are in my hand Across this quiet land Just like we always planned I finally understand [Pre-Chorus] The light hits the floor I open the door Quiet to the core What am I looking for? [Chorus] Oh, the silver dock Checking on the clock Memories in a lock Birds in a flock Down by the shore I don't need no more Like I did before Walking through the door [Post-Chorus] Just a little boy Full of quiet joy Nothing can destroy The light I now employ [Verse] The boat is old and grey It drifts along the bay At the start of day In a quiet way The floorboards start to hum A sense of where I'm from The morning has come Like a distant drum [Pre-Chorus] The light hits the floor I open the door Quiet to the core What am I looking for? [Chorus] Oh, the silver dock Checking on the clock Memories in a lock Birds in a flock Down by the shore I don't need no more Like I did before Walking through the door [Bridge] The rowboat starts to creak The wood is getting weak The water is so sleek The words I cannot speak I pull the heavy oars To the distant shores My spirit truly soars Behind these wooden doors [Verse] I find the carved name The wood is not the same I played a little game I felt no shame My knife was sharp and bright In the morning light Everything felt right Holding on so tight The letters are so deep Secrets that I keep While the world’s asleep I take a giant leap [Chorus] Oh, the silver dock Checking on the clock Memories in a lock Birds in a flock Down by the shore I don't need no more Like I did before Walking through the door [Hook] Rowing very slow In the morning glow Everything I know Watch the lilies grow [Outro]
