Follow where the deep winds blow

Verse 1

Wire hanging from the lemon tree

Tin lantern swaying over you and me

Red clay jug by the garden gate

Nobody speaking, nobody checking the date

Log drum humming through the gravel ground

Bare heels turning without a sound

Pre-Chorus

Rope pulls tight

Shadow catches the wall

Stay in this light

Let the heavy beat fall

Chorus

Lanterna, swing it slow

Follow where the deep winds blow

Shoulder to shoulder, chest to bone

Lanterna, swing it slow

We don't need the road back home

Verse 2

Kerosene breathing in the midnight heat

Damp cotton sticking to the rhythm beat

Your hand finds my wrist in the smoky space

Two shadows painted in the very same place

Bass shakes the zinc on the boundary wall

We sway easy, we don't speak at all

Pre-Chorus

Rope pulls tight

Shadow catches the wall

Stay in this light

Let the heavy beat fall

Chorus

Lanterna, swing it slow

Follow where the deep winds blow

Shoulder to shoulder, chest to bone

Lanterna, swing it slow

We don't need the road back home

Bridge

Oil burns low in the clouded glass

Let the morning forget to pass

Nothing spoken, nothing said

Only the dust where the dancers tread

Chorus

Lanterna, swing it slow

Follow where the deep winds blow

Shoulder to shoulder, chest to bone

Lanterna, swing it slow

We don't need the road back home
