Lantern vertigo, spin me slow (wersja 2)

Verse 1

Red tin lanterns hanging from the wire.

Sunset cooling on the clay and tire.

You drop your sandals by the open gate.

Log drum humming with the heavy weight.

Dust rises quiet round your ankles now.

Nobody speaking, no one asking how.

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the sway?

Lanterns swinging low.

Keep your shoulder close.

Let the balance go.

Chorus

Lantern vertigo, spin me slow.

Dust on the brick where the shadows go.

Your palm on my pulse in the amber glow.

Lantern vertigo, spin me slow.

Verse 2

Paraffin smoke in the evening air.

Warm breeze tangling in your braided hair.

Sweat on the collar like a drop of gold.

Nothing in the fingers that we need to hold.

Low bass crawling through the courtyard wall.

You catch my hip so we never fall.

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the sway?

Lanterns swinging low.

Keep your shoulder close.

Let the balance go.

Chorus

Lantern vertigo, spin me slow.

Dust on the brick where the shadows go.

Your palm on my pulse in the amber glow.

Lantern vertigo, spin me slow.

Bridge

Sky turns violet on the roof of tin.

Don't say nothing, pull the circle in.

One heel lifting while the other stays.

Dizzy in the dark where the copper plays.

Chorus

Lantern vertigo, spin me slow.

Dust on the brick where the shadows go.

Your palm on my pulse in the amber glow.

Lantern vertigo, spin me slow.
