Lyric discussion by carlhasmanystrings 

This song speaks to me on so many levels. I recently saw Frontier Ruckus perform this live and they basically are the soundtrack for my life right now. Feeling depressed and longing for the warm embrace of summers in Northern Michigan.

To me, this song is about a dying romance, like a sun setting on a last autumn day in your heart's chords.

The stirring leaves of vegetation are symbolic of his heart broken mind.

Finding another smell to believe in is finding a new romance.

Trying to find her. The time it takes to turn her night minds eye to his embrace.

Her tongue and the twilight marina - getting to know her by the bay, butterfly kisses.

Dampness of her sweat is the sweetest thing, with her head on his chest.

Even now, the vegetation stirs in his heart but he only hears the stillness and calmness of her beating heart.

It will take time for their love to be healed. But that time is only for a heart that is open to receiving true love, and strong willed nerves to hear that heart beating.

This is what this song means to me.
