Every Beat is a Blessing 2 (Version 2)

Verse 1

Bare feet on the concrete floor

Sweat dripping from my collarbone to the floor

Your hand brushes mine in time with two

The strobe light spins us into one rhyme

Pre-Chorus

Who taught these legs to move like water?

Why do I know this without you ever talking about it?

Something older than we are

Rising up from our skin and moving under the stars

Chorus

Every beat is a blessing, every step is a prayer

Moving through me till there's nothing left but air

Your eyes on mine like we're speaking a language nobody knows

This isn't ours alone, this has been written before

We are not just dancing, we are being carried over time

Every swing of your hips brings us one step closer to the line

Verse 2

Grandmother's feet walked on these same tiles before mine

Great-great-grandfather danced in a room without light, and I know this is why

Your shoulder blades move like wings unfolding from bone

The bassline hums inside me, making my very marrow turn home

Pre-Chorus

Who taught these legs to move like water?

Why do I know this without you ever talking about it?

Something older than we are

Rising up from our skin and moving under the stars

Chorus

Every beat is a blessing, every step is a prayer

Moving through me till there's nothing left but air

Your eyes on mine like we're speaking a language nobody knows

This isn't ours alone, this has been written before

We are not just dancing, we are being carried over time

Every swing of your hips brings us one step closer to the line

Bridge

I don't know what our names would be in another life

Maybe we'd be a river instead of bodies under the light

But right now I know that every kick of this drum is you

Every turn on the floor is a memory already true

Chorus

Every beat is a blessing, every step is a prayer

Moving through me till there's nothing left but air

Your eyes on mine like we're speaking a language nobody knows

This isn't ours alone, this has been written before

We are not just dancing, we are being carried over time

Every swing of your hips brings us one step closer to the line
