Blessed by the Night 2 (Version 2)

Intro

(Deep breath)

Night...

Verse 1 – female vocal, smoky soulful lead

Low light finds me on the floor

Skirt keeps time where your hand went before

Sweat and dust rising from every move

No clock here telling us what we prove

Ice in glass turning into heat

Your chest against mine skipping one beat

Nobody else remembers what we left outside

Only rhythm that never wants to hide

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rise, the floor beneath our feet

Is this how love is when it's finally complete?

Chorus – male and female trade lines

Blessed by the night, blessed by the sound

Hands up, hips low, never looking down

Floor don't stop until the sun comes through

We move like one thing, just me and you

Blessed by the night, blessed by the beat

Every step we take is already a retreat

No more talking, let the rhythm be our proof

This is how love moves when it's ready to grow

Verse 2 – female vocal

Spine keeps time with the log drum low

You don't need words when the bassline goes

Necklaces swinging off your collarbone

Every move we make feels like a prayer, alone

Your breath on my neck right where the sun doesn't reach

Whispered in my ear as the kick drum takes

Nobody's watching us from the other side of town

Only sound that keeps us here and never lets down

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rise, the floor beneath our feet

Is this how love is when it's finally complete?

Chorus – male and female trade lines

Blessed by the night, blessed by the sound

Hands up, hips low, never looking down

Floor don't stop until the sun comes through

We move like one thing, just me and you

Blessed by the night, blessed by the beat

Every step we take is already a retreat

No more talking, let the rhythm be our proof

This is how love moves when it's ready to grow

Bridge

No name for this, no time or place

Only moving air that turns into space

We're not leaving till the morning light

Floor keeps us warm and the drum won't lie

Outro

Night...

Blessed by the night...

Still here...
