Move with the pull of the burning string (versión 2)

Verse

Copper wire strung between two poles

Lantern swaying where the warm wind rolls

Dust lifts soft off the packed clay ground

Your shoulder answers the low drum sound

Nobody speaks till the flame leans right

Then the whole courtyard turns amber light

Pre-Chorus

Watch the shadow stretch across the floor

Wider now than it was before

Hips find the count that the wire keeps

Waking something the stillness keeps

Chorus

Follow the lanterna swing

Move with the pull of the burning string

Follow the lanterna swing

Skin knows the count without counting

Follow the lanterna swing

Follow the lanterna swing

Verse

Barefoot line on the open field

Lantern tilting, the light unsealed

Sweat on your temple catching the glow

Feet already know where to go

Hip leans in when the arc comes wide

Nothing said, but nothing denied

Pre-Chorus

Watch the shadow stretch across the floor

Wider now than it was before

Hips find the count that the wire keeps

Waking something the stillness keeps

Chorus

Follow the lanterna swing

Move with the pull of the burning string

Follow the lanterna swing

Skin knows the count without counting

Follow the lanterna swing

Follow the lanterna swing

Bridge

Flame gutters low, then it's gone

Still your body carries it on

Dark courtyard, wire still and bare

The rhythm lives on, it's already there

Chorus

Follow the lanterna swing

Move with the pull of the burning string

Follow the lanterna swing

Skin knows the count without counting

Follow the lanterna swing

Follow the lanterna swing
