Between the Towers - MONGYEON
Between the towers
Morning finds my face
Light is falling softly in the narrow shining space
Glass above and steps below
City currents start to flow
Coffee warmth and passing steam
Half awake and half in dream
Crosswalk signals blink in time
Silver trains beneath the line
Every window holds a sky
As the day is passing by
Red light, slow down
Hear the echoes fade
Deep breath, look up
Patterns made of shade
Street sounds rise now in the canyon rain
Between the towers
Walking through the day start turning
Every little window has a quiet light still burning
Fast enough to move my heart
Soft enough to let it start
Between the towers
Walking through the sunlight
All the noise becomes a rhythm
When the timing feels right
In the space between it all
I can hear the city call
Off of shoes and leather bags
Route signs, maps and yellow cabs
Someone smiling to themselves
Someone reaching for the rails
Wind is moving down the blocks
Morning hums and ticking clocks
In the rush I start to see
This whole town is breathing free
Green light, step wide
Feel the shadows move
Warmth on all the glass
Everything in view
This town, right now
Has a distant groove
Between the towers
Walking through the day start turning
Every little window has a quiet light still burning
Fast enough to move my heart
Soft enough to let it start
Between the towers
Walking through the sunlight
All the noise becomes a rhythm
When the timing feels right
In the space between it all
I can hear the city call
Between the still and open sky
I can watch the hours fly
Not too loud and not too far
Just enough to know where we are
Every corner, every frame
Seems to whisper out my name
And the morning opens wide
With the skyline by my side
Between the towers
Carry me a little higher
Every avenue is glowing with a cool electric fire
Every footstep finds its own
Even when I walk alone
Between the towers
Rolling through the gray light
Making all the moving hours feel like perfect daylight
In the rush I come alive
With the whole world in my stride
Shadows break
Morning's fully wide awake
Between the towers
I can feel my place today
Between the towers
