Red light on your collarbone

Verse 1

Sun leans on the courtyard wall

Long shadows start to crawl

Bare feet on the warm red stone

We don't dance out here alone

Kerosene burning sweet and slow

Copper wire tied down below

You tilt your head to catch the drum

Waiting for the cool to come

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the timber hum

Underneath your heel and thumb

Take my wrist and draw the line

Right before the sun goes blind

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low

Lanterna swinging low

Red light on your collarbone

Moving where the warm winds blow

Lanterna swinging low

Lanterna swinging low

Let the heavy log drum speak

Every step is all we know

Verse 2

Cool water in the clay bowl

Rhythm taking full control

Wrinkles in your linen shirt

Bare toes kicking up the dirt

Nobody speaks, nobody calls

Bassline shaking through the walls

Two shadows folding into one

Drinking what is left of sun

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the timber hum

Underneath your heel and thumb

Take my wrist and draw the line

Right before the sun goes blind

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low

Lanterna swinging low

Red light on your collarbone

Moving where the warm winds blow

Lanterna swinging low

Lanterna swinging low

Let the heavy log drum speak

Every step is all we know

Bridge

Stay right here

Chest to chest

Let the evening settle west

No need for words across the floor

We sway until we need no more

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low

Lanterna swinging low

Red light on your collarbone

Moving where the warm winds blow

Lanterna swinging low

Lanterna swinging low

Let the heavy log drum speak

Every step is all we know
