We Dance Till Dawn Breaks

Verse

Yellow bulbs on the balcony wire

Bass in my chest like a second heartbeat

Ice in the cup but the night's on fire

Log drum rolling underneath my feet

Somebody pour, let it overflow

Auntie's dancing with her heels off now

Every face here got a golden glow

We don't stop, we don't ask why or how

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, rising

Underneath the streetlight skies

Hands up, no disguising

This is how it feels alive

Chorus

We dance till dawn breaks

Till the grey turns gold

Whatever the night takes

We let it go, let it go

We dance till dawn breaks

Feet don't feel the floor

Sweetest thing my heart makes

We don't need nothing more

Verse

Shisha smoke curling past the gate

Cousin on the keys playing something new

Six a.m. but nobody's leaving straight

Sky's turning peach, turning candy blue

Whistle blows, the whole yard shouts

Grandma's shuffle got the young ones shook

Turn the speaker up, let the low end out

This the kind of joy you can't write in a book

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, rising

Underneath the streetlight skies

Hands up, no disguising

This is how it feels alive

Chorus

We dance till dawn breaks

Till the grey turns gold

Whatever the night takes

We let it go, let it go

We dance till dawn breaks

Feet don't feel the floor

Sweetest thing my heart makes

We don't need nothing more

Bridge

No clock on this wall tonight

No worry we gotta hold

Just skin and the amber light

And a rhythm older than gold

Let the horns say what my mouth can't

Let the drum say what my heart knows

Chorus

We dance till dawn breaks

Till the grey turns gold

Whatever the night takes

We let it go, let it go

We dance till dawn breaks

Feet don't feel the floor

Sweetest thing my heart makes

We don't need nothing more
