Sunrise Over Jozi 2 3 (Version 2)

Verse

Whistle on my collarbone, taxi horn off in the distance

Stoop light still humming over your shoulder, same old rhythm, no resistance

Cinder blocks hold up your story like a frame for the sun

We stood right here yesterday talking 'bout where we begun

Pre-Chorus

So how do you make this feel like home when the whole town's on the move?

Can a place just stay steady in your chest if it keeps changing its groove?

Look up, look up at the sky turning yellow over you and me

Chorus

Sunrise over Jozi, same four walls but different energy

Every morning starts like we're chasing something new to be

Sunrise over Jozi, city waking slow with us inside

Never leaving this one corner where our story takes its ride

Verse

Your great-grandma used to tell you 'bout the streets that never slept

Now I'm standing here holding your hand and trying not to forget

Same log drums still calling out like a siren in my chest

Only difference is now I get to call this place home, not just rest

Pre-Chorus

So how do you make this feel like home when the whole town's on the move?

Can a place just stay steady in your chest if it keeps changing its groove?

Look up, look up at the sky turning yellow over you and me

Chorus

Sunrise over Jozi, same four walls but different energy

Every morning starts like we're chasing something new to be

Sunrise over Jozi, city waking slow with us inside

Never leaving this one corner where our story takes its ride

Bridge

Not a promise, just the light on your face and I know it's true

Chorus

Sunrise over Jozi, same four walls but different energy

Every morning starts like we're chasing something new to be

Sunrise over Jozi, city waking slow with us inside

Never leaving this one corner where our story takes its ride
