Lanterna, lanterna, swing it slow

Verse 1

Sun goes copper on the tin

Feel the evening settling in

Paraffin smoke inside the glass

Bare feet shifting on the grass

You give a nod, you take my wrist

Red dust rising like a mist

Pre-Chorus

Wire is trembling from the tree

Room enough for you and me

Do you feel the rumble start

Beating slower than the heart

Chorus

Lanterna, lanterna, swing it slow

Watch the purple shadow grow

Golden circle on the ground

Move your body to the sound

Lanterna, lanterna, burning bright

We dance the sun into the night

Verse 2

Sweat is cooling on your nape

Shadows losing every shape

Clay turns darker by the door

Press your heel into the floor

Palm meets palm against the dark

Catching every little spark

Pre-Chorus

Wire is trembling from the tree

Room enough for you and me

Do you feel the rumble start

Beating slower than the heart

Chorus

Lanterna, lanterna, swing it slow

Watch the purple shadow grow

Golden circle on the ground

Move your body to the sound

Lanterna, lanterna, burning bright

We dance the sun into the night

Bridge

No clock ticking on the wall

Just the heavy shaker call

Wick is steady, burning deep

One slow promise that we keep

Chorus

Lanterna, lanterna, swing it slow

Watch the purple shadow grow

Golden circle on the ground

Move your body to the sound

Lanterna, lanterna, burning bright

We dance the sun into the night
