Lanterna, hold the golden ring (Version 4) lyrics
Verse 1
Paraffin wick in the amber glass
Sunset settling in the grass
Zinc roof clicking in the cool
Bare feet scuffing by the stool
You catch the pulse before it breaks
One breath is all the rhythm takes
Pre-Chorus
The wire swings
The red dust clears
No need to speak
When the drum is here
Chorus
Lanterna, hold the golden ring
Lanterna, let the bodies swing
Skin to skin against the stone
Nobody dancing here alone
Lanterna, hold the golden ring
Verse 2
Collarbone wet with the evening heat
Rolling drum beneath our feet
You lean your weight into my side
Nowhere for the dark to hide
Long shadows pulling on the floor
Nobody looking for the door
Pre-Chorus
The wire swings
The red dust clears
No need to speak
When the drum is here
Chorus
Lanterna, hold the golden ring
Lanterna, let the bodies swing
Skin to skin against the stone
Nobody dancing here alone
Lanterna, hold the golden ring
Bridge
Kerosene fading
Ash on the glass
Only the pulse
That we let pass
Stay in the circle
Till daylight wakes
Chorus
Lanterna, hold the golden ring
Lanterna, let the bodies swing
Skin to skin against the stone
Nobody dancing here alone
Lanterna, hold the golden ring
