[Verse] Morning breaks on the waterâs skin, Faint whispers of diesel drift in. Salt air wraps around the quay, A quiet world waits patiently. [Pre-Chorus] Breathe it deep, the edge of land, Time slips soft through open hands. [Chorus] Diesel and salt, they call me home, Where the waves and engines roam. In the hush of dawnâs cool light, Iâm carried far on fading tides. [Verse] Rust and foam, the stories blend, Ships and dreams that never end. Footsteps echo, slow and sure, In this air, my heart is pure. [Pre-Chorus] Breathe it deep, the edge of land, Time slips soft through open hands. [Chorus] Diesel and salt, they call me home, Where the waves and engines roam. In the hush of dawnâs cool light, Iâm carried far on fading tides. [Bridge] Close your eyes, the harborâs breath, A gentle pulse beneath the depths. Every scent a memory made, In diesel dreams and oceanâs fade. [Chorus] Diesel and salt, they call me home, Where the waves and engines roam. In the hush of dawnâs cool light, Iâm carried far on fading tides. [Outro] On fading tides, on fading tides, Diesel and salt, they call me home.
