Canopy of Green

[Intro]

[Verse]
Golden heat is spilling through the shutters
Waking up the color in the room
Every open window starts to flutter
Calling to the gardens back in bloom
Put away the shadow and the worry
Tie the laces tight upon your feet
There is no more reason for a hurry
Move your body out into the heat

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear the whistle calling
Catch the tide before it's falling
Every heart is jumping in the chest
Leave the heavy spirit for a rest

[Chorus]
Dance under the canopy of green
Living in the brightest day you’ve seen
Let the copper bells begin to ring
Listen to the way the people sing
Higher than the palms against the blue
Everything is waking up for you
Feel the pulse within the paving stone
Nobody is dancing on their own

[Verse]
Waves are pushing salt into the breezes
Turning all the sand into a floor
Every little moment that it seizes
Drawing all the neighbors to the door
Bright confetti flying like a feather
Spinning in a circle round the square
Pulling every stranger back together
Laughter hanging heavy in the air

[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear the whistle calling
Catch the tide before it's falling
Every heart is jumping in the chest
Leave the heavy spirit for a rest

[Chorus]
Dance under the canopy of green
Living in the brightest day you’ve seen
Let the copper bells begin to ring
Listen to the way the people sing
Higher than the palms against the blue
Everything is waking up for you
Feel the pulse within the paving stone
Nobody is dancing on their own
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Step to the left, then you slide to the right
Keep on the fire until it is night
Follow the shaker and follow the drum
Counting the stars until morning has come
One for the spirit and two for the soul
Giving the motion the total control

[Chorus]
Dance under the canopy of green
Living in the brightest day you’ve seen
Let the copper bells begin to ring
Listen to the way the people sing
Higher than the palms against the blue
Everything is waking up for you
Feel the pulse within the paving stone
Nobody is dancing on their ownKeep it moving
Sun is shining
Keep it moving
No more waiting
Moving on the beat
In the heat
Keep it moving
[Ad-libs]
Yeah
That’s it
Under the sun
Keep it moving
