Caught in your stride and I lose control

Verse 1

Saffron thread and a cup of tea

Shadow leaning from your neck to me

Barefoot balance on the terrace tile

You don't rush when you give that smile

Heavy brass ring on your thumb today

Spinning slow while the guitars play

Pre-Chorus

The wind kicks up from the southern pass

Heat rising steady through the colored glass

Why would I run when you hold so fast?

Chorus

Caught in your stride and I lose control

Sun on your skin like nomad gold

Two worn soles on an open road

Carrying only what we hold

Caught in your stride and I lose control

Sun on your skin like nomad gold

Verse 2

Pocket knife carving up a melon rind

Not an old regret on my mind

Cumin smoke in the market square

Catch your hand and I pull you there

Wooden beads clicking on your chest

Nowhere else I would rather rest

Pre-Chorus

The wind kicks up from the southern pass

Heat rising steady through the colored glass

Why would I run when you hold so fast?

Chorus

Caught in your stride and I lose control

Sun on your skin like nomad gold

Two worn soles on an open road

Carrying only what we hold

Caught in your stride and I lose control

Sun on your skin like nomad gold

Bridge

I used to drift just to keep my pace

Never stayed long in an easy place

Now you step in and the wandering ends

Right where the dust and the daylight bends

Chorus

Caught in your stride and I lose control

Sun on your skin like nomad gold

Two worn soles on an open road

Carrying only what we hold

Caught in your stride and I lose control

Sun on your skin like nomad gold
