Let your weight drop to the sound (versie 2)

Verse 1

Red clay cooling under your feet

The shaker steady through the river heat

Your shoulder leaning where my shoulder stays

The bassline rolling through the amber haze

Sweat turns cool on the back of your neck

We leave the dry grass, we leave the deck

Pre-Chorus

Feel the tremor rise from the sand

Take the pulse right out of my hand

Where do we go when the red sun dies

Follow the low note down

Chorus

Into the water, into the ground

Let your weight drop to the sound

Skin on skin while the river cools

Into the water, into the ground

Deep in the bassline, nowhere to run

Into the water, into the ground

Verse 2

Ripples on the bank where your bare heels turn

The last of the copper begins to burn

No talking now, just breath on the bone

Two bodies moving like a single stone

Wet silt rising up around your knees

A low drum drifting through the willow trees

Pre-Chorus

Feel the tremor rise from the sand

Take the pulse right out of my hand

Where do we go when the red sun dies

Follow the low note down

Chorus

Into the water, into the ground

Let your weight drop to the sound

Skin on skin while the river cools

Into the water, into the ground

Deep in the bassline, nowhere to run

Into the water, into the ground

Bridge

River takes the heat away

Earth takes all we could not say

Hold the rhythm, let it pull

Empty out till the chest is full

Chorus

Into the water, into the ground

Let your weight drop to the sound

Skin on skin while the river cools

Into the water, into the ground

Deep in the bassline, nowhere to run

Into the water, into the ground
