Midnight Umlazi Groove (Version 2)

Verse

Dust on the doorway, six a.m. shoes

Log drum still knocking through my bones like news

Umlazi corner, the taxis roll slow

Sky turning orange where the streetlights go

Pre-Chorus

We been dancing since the dark was young

Now the light is calling, feel it on my tongue

Can we hold this feeling, stretch it thin

Right before the morning lets the sun back in

Chorus

Sunrise on the Umlazi groove

Gold on the rooftops, nothing left to prove

Hands up, heartbeat, sweat and dew

Sunrise on the Umlazi groove

Verse

Bass still humming through the concrete floor

Someone's sandal left behind the door

Whistle from the DJ, one more round

Shadows getting shorter, losing ground

Pre-Chorus

We been dancing since the dark was young

Now the light is calling, feel it on my tongue

Can we hold this feeling, stretch it thin

Right before the morning lets the sun back in

Chorus

Sunrise on the Umlazi groove

Gold on the rooftops, nothing left to prove

Hands up, heartbeat, sweat and dew

Sunrise on the Umlazi groove

Bridge

No more shadows, just the two of us

Warm road humming, walking through the dust

Every night we chase, it comes back true

Morning finds us dancing, me and you

Chorus

Sunrise on the Umlazi groove

Gold on the rooftops, nothing left to prove

Hands up, heartbeat, sweat and dew

Sunrise on the Umlazi groove
