Slow heat under open sky (Version 2)

Verse 1

Red soil cool against the heel.

Low hum shaking what we feel.

Sun drops down behind the pine.

Your shoulder presses into mine.

No words hanging in the air.

Two feet sliding here to there.

Pre-Chorus

Catch the spark before it leaves.

Hear the drum between our sleeves.

Can you feel the circle wide?

Step across and move inside.

Chorus

Wildfire in the night.

Slow heat under open sky.

Wildfire in the night.

Red dust rolling hip to thigh.

Hold the ground until we glow.

Wildfire in the night.

Verse 2

Bare arms brush along the fence.

Log drum heavy in the chest.

Corrugated tin goes warm.

Swaying right before the storm.

Shadows stretch across the yard.

Breathing soft and stepping hard.

Pre-Chorus

Catch the spark before it leaves.

Hear the drum between our sleeves.

Can you feel the circle wide?

Step across and move inside.

Chorus

Wildfire in the night.

Slow heat under open sky.

Wildfire in the night.

Red dust rolling hip to thigh.

Hold the ground until we glow.

Wildfire in the night.

Bridge

We don't speak, we only stay.

Wash the daylight clean away.

Ash and amber on the skin.

Open up and let it in.

Chorus

Wildfire in the night.

Slow heat under open sky.

Wildfire in the night.

Red dust rolling hip to thigh.

Hold the ground until we glow.

Wildfire in the night.
