Dawn Body Sway

Intro

Courtyard cold, tin roof drips

Bucket balanced, still asleep

Verse

Water line drawn across my crown

Feet find the rhythm on wet stone

Grandmother's sway lives in my spine

Long before I'm grown

Pre-Chorus

Feel it start before the kettle

Feel it move before my eyes

Hips already know the answer

Water never lies

Chorus

Dawn body sway

Hips keep the water still

Dawn body sway

Moving before I will

Verse

Washing line snapping in the wind

Steam rising off the yard

Same tilt my mother carried home

Weight that isn't hard

Pre-Chorus

Feel it start before the kettle

Feel it move before my eyes

Hips already know the answer

Water never lies

Chorus

Dawn body sway

Hips keep the water still

Dawn body sway

Moving before I will

Bridge

Not balance, it's remembering

Not weight, it's family

Every drop that doesn't spill

Is someone dancing still in me

Outro

Dawn body sway

Water settles, warm and slow

Dawn body sway

Steady now, I know
