Lanterna swinging slow (Version 2) lyrics
Verse 1
Sun slips behind the zinc roof line
Red clay cools down just in time
Your hand reaches through the smoke
Before a single word is spoke
Heels tapping on the hardened ground
Nothing moving but the sound
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the copper air?
Can you feel the pulse right there?
Lean against the braided wire
Watch the dusk climb higher
Chorus
Lanterna swinging slow
Show where your footsteps go
Warm amber on your skin
This is where we begin
Lanterna swinging slow
Let the deep rhythm know
Verse 2
Paraffin and lemon rind
Leave the daytime far behind
Shoulder brushes shoulder blade
In the yellow circle made
Two shadows folding into one
Doing what the drums begun
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the copper air?
Can you feel the pulse right there?
Lean against the braided wire
Watch the dusk climb higher
Chorus
Lanterna swinging slow
Show where your footsteps go
Warm amber on your skin
This is where we begin
Lanterna swinging slow
Let the deep rhythm know
Bridge
Sky is indigo now
We don't need to ask how
Just the wick and the glass
Watching the heavy hours pass
Hold the ground, breathe it in
Chorus
Lanterna swinging slow
Show where your footsteps go
Warm amber on your skin
This is where we begin
Lanterna swinging slow
Let the deep rhythm know
