Step down into the water lyrics
Verse 1
Sun falls low across the grass
Bare feet sliding through the sand
Speaker thumping on the bank
You don't speak, you take my hand
Copper light upon your chest
Every shadow stretching long
Ground is cooling in the shade
Body listening to the song
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the drift now
Ripples at our knees
Bassline pulls us under
Moving with the breeze
Chorus
Step down into the water
Log drum rolling through the tide
Step down into the water
Leave the heavy heat behind
Cool current on our skin
Where the river meets the sound
Step down into the water
Feet let go of the ground
Verse 2
Water rising to our waist
Red dust washing from our toes
Drum beats shaking on the reeds
Where the deeper channel goes
Droplets shining on your neck
Swaying gently side to side
No more words between us now
Just the rolling of the tide
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the drift now
Ripples at our knees
Bassline pulls us under
Moving with the breeze
Chorus
Step down into the water
Log drum rolling through the tide
Step down into the water
Leave the heavy heat behind
Cool current on our skin
Where the river meets the sound
Step down into the water
Feet let go of the ground
Bridge
Weightless now, we float alone
Bass still rattling in the stones
Sky turns purple, stars awake
Every breath is one we take
Chorus
Step down into the water
Log drum rolling through the tide
Step down into the water
Leave the heavy heat behind
Cool current on our skin
Where the river meets the sound
Step down into the water
Feet let go of the ground
