Monsoon Strut (Version 2)

Verse 1

Silver water on the cobblestone

Teakwood awning and we're not alone

You tilt your chin and flick the dripping hair

Cinnamon and steam floating in the air

Pre-Chorus

Sky turns indigo, the air gets sweet

Thunder drumming right under our feet

Tell me who gave you that rhythm tonight

Chorus

Step through the water with my head held high

Catching that lightning straight out of your eye

Drenched to the collar and I like your cut

Falling for you in that monsoon strut

Verse 2

Linen sticking to our sunburnt skin

Brass bells chime where the street begins

You pull my hand through the mango stalls

Laughing in the wash as the curtain falls

Pre-Chorus

Sky turns indigo, the air gets sweet

Thunder drumming right under our feet

Tell me who gave you that rhythm tonight

Chorus

Step through the water with my head held high

Catching that lightning straight out of your eye

Drenched to the collar and I like your cut

Falling for you in that monsoon strut

Bridge

Never loved the storm till I saw you move

Every muddy river turned into a groove

Let the clouds spill over, let the gutters rise

I already found where my shoreline lies

Chorus

Step through the water with my head held high

Catching that lightning straight out of your eye

Drenched to the collar and I like your cut

Falling for you in that monsoon strut
