Leave the vessel on the floor (Version 2) lyrics
Verse 1
Three a.m., smoke turning grey
One slow dance before you walk away
Sweat on your neck, glass in my hand
Bassline vibrating across the sand
Tiles stay warm beneath our feet
Every goodbye caught inside the beat
Pre-Chorus
Spill it out, let it go
Is this the end or the start of the glow
Drop the weight, open the door
Morning light is ready for more
Chorus
Leave the vessel on the floor
We don't carry this no more
Gold light coming through the door
Leave the vessel on the floor
Leave the vessel on the floor
Starting over on the floor
Verse 2
Taxi idling out on the street
Engine humming in the early heat
You pull your jacket round your chest
No heavy words, we did our best
Keys on the counter, silver shine
Your road is yours and mine is mine
Pre-Chorus
Spill it out, let it go
Is this the end or the start of the glow
Drop the weight, open the door
Morning light is ready for more
Chorus
Leave the vessel on the floor
We don't carry this no more
Gold light coming through the door
Leave the vessel on the floor
Leave the vessel on the floor
Starting over on the floor
Bridge
Break the clay, clear the space
Sun coming up on an open face
Nothing is broken, nothing is gone
Just water moving into the dawn
Chorus
Leave the vessel on the floor
We don't carry this no more
Gold light coming through the door
Leave the vessel on the floor
Leave the vessel on the floor
Starting over on the floor
