Hold my waist in the lantern vertigo (Version 2) lyrics
Verse 1
Red paper swinging from the iron wire
Warm smoke rising from the paraffin fire
Your bare heels turning on the paving stone
Bass rolls under where the skin meets bone
Pre-Chorus
The yard starts leaning when you pull me near
No words spoken, only what we hear
Can you feel the circle begin to sway
Can you feel the ground falling away
Chorus
Round and round where the yellow shadows glow
Hold my waist in the lantern vertigo
Earth keeps spinning and the lights hang low
Hold my waist in the lantern vertigo
Verse 2
Beads of water on your collarbone
Two shadows blending into one alone
Tin cups rattling on the wooden crate
Drums don't hurry when the hour gets late
Pre-Chorus
The yard starts leaning when you pull me near
No words spoken, only what we hear
Can you feel the circle begin to sway
Can you feel the ground falling away
Chorus
Round and round where the yellow shadows glow
Hold my waist in the lantern vertigo
Earth keeps spinning and the lights hang low
Hold my waist in the lantern vertigo
Bridge
Close your eyes, let the fences slide
Nothing to follow, nowhere to hide
Just your chest against my chest
Let the spinning do the rest
Chorus
Round and round where the yellow shadows glow
Hold my waist in the lantern vertigo
Earth keeps spinning and the lights hang low
Hold my waist in the lantern vertigo
