Keep your step right here (Version 2)

Verse 1

Sun sinking down past the corrugated tin

Cool breeze pushing where the day has been

Red dust settling soft on your toes

Your shoulder moves the way the shaker goes

No need to talk when the courtyard hums

Two shadows waiting on the wooden drums

Pre-Chorus

Feel the ground lean in

Feel the warmth give way

One breath on your neck

Nothing left to say

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low

Keep your step right here

Amber on the stone

Draw the circle near

Lanterna swinging low

Bass inside the chest

Moving in the dark

Let the daylight rest

Verse 2

Tin cup sweating on the wooden chair

Orange smoke drifting through the heavy air

Your hand finds my wrist in the fading heat

Count of four sinking down into our feet

Gravel turns quiet under heel and toe

Everything softens where the slow winds blow

Pre-Chorus

Feel the ground lean in

Feel the warmth give way

One breath on your neck

Nothing left to say

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low

Keep your step right here

Amber on the stone

Draw the circle near

Lanterna swinging low

Bass inside the chest

Moving in the dark

Let the daylight rest

Bridge

Sky turns violet, copper turns black

No turning forward, no looking back

Just the wick burning down to the wire

Just the pulse underneath the quiet fire

Chorus

Lanterna swinging low

Keep your step right here

Amber on the stone

Draw the circle near

Lanterna swinging low

Bass inside the chest

Moving in the dark

Let the daylight rest
