Gold on the rooftops, we let go (versie 2)

Verse

Dust on my shoes, the gate still swinging

Speaker stacks breathing, the crowd start singing

Your hand finds mine between the horns and drum

Stranger becomes a we, becomes a some

Pre-Chorus

Sky going pink behind the wires

Whole block moving like one desire

Tell me you feel the same slow rise

Chorus

Sunrise over Soweto

Gold on the rooftops, we let go

Hands in the air like we know

Sunrise over Soweto

Verse

Corner store shutters roll up like a cheer

Somebody's grandmother dancing right here

Kick drum walking down the tin roof street

Every stranger's shadow moving with my feet

Pre-Chorus

Sky going pink behind the wires

Whole block moving like one desire

Tell me you feel the same slow rise

Chorus

Sunrise over Soweto

Gold on the rooftops, we let go

Hands in the air like we know

Sunrise over Soweto

Bridge

Your eyes catch the light before the sound does

Half a smile says we're becoming one of us

No more edges, just the horn line calling

Warm concrete under feet still falling

Chorus

Sunrise over Soweto

Gold on the rooftops, we let go

Hands in the air like we know

Sunrise over Soweto
