Move with the pull of the burning string (Version 2) lyrics
Verse
Copper wire strung between two poles
Lantern swaying where the warm wind rolls
Dust lifts soft off the packed clay ground
Your shoulder answers the low drum sound
Nobody speaks till the flame leans right
Then the whole courtyard turns amber light
Pre-Chorus
Watch the shadow stretch across the floor
Wider now than it was before
Hips find the count that the wire keeps
Waking something the stillness keeps
Chorus
Follow the lanterna swing
Move with the pull of the burning string
Follow the lanterna swing
Skin knows the count without counting
Follow the lanterna swing
Follow the lanterna swing
Verse
Barefoot line on the open field
Lantern tilting, the light unsealed
Sweat on your temple catching the glow
Feet already know where to go
Hip leans in when the arc comes wide
Nothing said, but nothing denied
Pre-Chorus
Watch the shadow stretch across the floor
Wider now than it was before
Hips find the count that the wire keeps
Waking something the stillness keeps
Chorus
Follow the lanterna swing
Move with the pull of the burning string
Follow the lanterna swing
Skin knows the count without counting
Follow the lanterna swing
Follow the lanterna swing
Bridge
Flame gutters low, then it's gone
Still your body carries it on
Dark courtyard, wire still and bare
The rhythm lives on, it's already there
Chorus
Follow the lanterna swing
Move with the pull of the burning string
Follow the lanterna swing
Skin knows the count without counting
Follow the lanterna swing
Follow the lanterna swing
