Lanterna, swing slow (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse 1

Zinc roof cooling in the orange sun

Red dust rising where the shakers run

You move left, I answer with my stride

Cool wind blowing where the heat would hide

No words needed when the shoulders touch

Floor stays steady though it carries much

Pre-Chorus

Copper in the western sky

Shadows stretching as the day goes dry

Do you feel that low drop near

Nothing missing when we step right here

Chorus

Lanterna, swing slow

Hold the circle in the amber glow

Lanterna, burn bright

Keep our bodies in the fading light

Verse 2

Clay jug resting by the wooden crate

Nobody asking if the hour is late

Your breath steady on my open chest

Log drum settles where the ribcage rests

Sweat shines easy on the darker skin

Door stands open, let the evening in

Pre-Chorus

Copper in the western sky

Shadows stretching as the day goes dry

Do you feel that low drop near

Nothing missing when we step right here

Chorus

Lanterna, swing slow

Hold the circle in the amber glow

Lanterna, burn bright

Keep our bodies in the fading light

Bridge

One wire hanging from the wooden beam

Darkness thicker than the sunset dream

No past behind us, no road ahead

Just bare feet moving where the drum has led

Chorus

Lanterna, swing slow

Hold the circle in the amber glow

Lanterna, burn bright

Keep our bodies in the fading light
