about

Told from Uncle Phil's perspective. The Captain's son. Musing on the thoughts and feelings that might have visited with him up in the light-tower in the close hours after midnight and giving some sense of the epic scale of this place at the edge of the world.

lyrics

Between the air and sea floating in the inky void,
Fragile souls seek solid land,
A single beam of light arcs through time and space,
Destiny rests in my hands,

In the lonely hours after midnight,
Silent ghosts and memories,

I'm the captain's son,
I was only a boy when the telegram said he was lost at sea,
Swept away by the war,
We waited day-by-day,
Mother still gazes at the waves,

In the lonely hours after midnight,
There's an owl sitting on the tower gazing at the endless beyond,
Floating on mercury the heartbeat light pulses like blood in time,

At the going down of the sun lest we forget,
There's a guiding star in the dead of night,
The ocean wants to take you in, tightly in it's cold embrace,
In the darkness I will light your way,

In the lonely hours after midnight,
There's an owl sitting on the tower gazing at the endless beyond,
Floating on mercury the heartbeat light pulses like blood in time.
