Burn like a lanterna, keep me slow (versie 2)

Verse 1

Red brick patio, sunset low

Speakers humming in the yard below

Bare feet shifting on the dusty stone

Two shadows moving into one alone

You lean in close, not a word to say

Let the log drum wash the heat away

Pre-Chorus

Amber glass catching the last of the sun

Feel that rolling rhythm come

Step to the left, step to the right

Catching the warmth before the night

Chorus

Burn like a lanterna, keep me slow

Hold to the rhythm where the shadows go

Skin to skin in the amber glow

Burn like a lanterna, let it roll

Verse 2

Paraffin flicker on the tabletop

Heavy low kick that doesn't stop

Your collar open to the evening breeze

Drifting easy through the jacaranda trees

Shoulder to shoulder, keeping time

No need to speak, your hand finds mine

Pre-Chorus

Amber glass catching the last of the sun

Feel that rolling rhythm come

Step to the left, step to the right

Catching the warmth before the night

Chorus

Burn like a lanterna, keep me slow

Hold to the rhythm where the shadows go

Skin to skin in the amber glow

Burn like a lanterna, let it roll

Bridge

Sky turns violet, the dust stays warm

Moving together inside the calm

No road behind us, no clock ahead

Just what the bassline already said

Chorus

Burn like a lanterna, keep me slow

Hold to the rhythm where the shadows go

Skin to skin in the amber glow

Burn like a lanterna, let it roll
