Shadow on the ground everywhere you go (wersja 2)

Verse 1

Zinc roof cooling in the amber air

Dust settling softly on the plastic chair

Your bare heels tapping on the red clay floor

Log drum hums through the open door

No words spoken, only skin on skin

We know the place where the sway begins

Pre-Chorus

Feel that timber creak above

Catch the draft that pulls us in

Count the breath before the drop

Let the heavy rhythm spin

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low, lanterna swinging low

Shadow on the ground everywhere you go

Warm wind rolling through the quiet glow

Lanterna swinging low, lanterna swinging low

Verse 2

Paraffin smoke drifting sweet and thin

Cool dusk settling where the sun had been

Your hand finds mine in the heavy beat

Loose red earth underneath our feet

Shoulders rolling to the shaker's pace

Nothing hurried in this open space

Pre-Chorus

Feel that timber creak above

Catch the draft that pulls us in

Count the breath before the drop

Let the heavy rhythm spin

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low, lanterna swinging low

Shadow on the ground everywhere you go

Warm wind rolling through the quiet glow

Lanterna swinging low, lanterna swinging low

Bridge

The wire gives an inch

The yellow flame leans deep

The bass holds the ground

That the morning gets to keep

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low, lanterna swinging low

Shadow on the ground everywhere you go

Warm wind rolling through the quiet glow

Lanterna swinging low, lanterna swinging low
