Lyrics

[Intro]
[Verse]
Dawn breaks on the shore
I can’t stay no more
Salt on my shawl
I hear the sea call
My heels hit the sand
Leaving this land
Dust on my feet
Bitter and sweet
[Pre-Chorus]
A fisherman’s horn cries out
Removing every single doubt
The ferry waits in the mist
For the life that I’ve missed
[Chorus]
One last dance in the dust
Turning iron into rust
My heart is a flame
I’m forgetting your name
Bitter and wild
No longer a child
Watch the white foam rise
Under Andalusian skies
[Post-Chorus]
Heel, toe, strike the ground
Silence is the only sound
Heel, toe, let it burn
There is no return
[Verse]
Cracked guitar case in hand
Across the burning sand
The strings are all dead
Like the words we once said
I pack up the grief
For a moment of relief
The wind starts to blow
And I have to go
[Chorus]
One last dance in the dust
Turning iron into rust
My heart is a flame
I’m forgetting your name
Bitter and wild
No longer a child
Watch the white foam rise
Under Andalusian skies
[Bridge]
The boat groans on the tide
Nowhere left for me to hide
I’m trading the heat
For a rhythm that’s sweet
The waves take my tears
And all of my fears
I’m crossing the line
And the future is mine
[Hook]
Baila, baila, the salt is white
Baila, baila, into the light
Baila, baila, the horn is loud
Baila, baila, I’m standing proud
[Chorus]
One last dance in the dust
Turning iron into rust
My heart is a flame
I’m forgetting your name
Bitter and wild
No longer a child
Watch the white foam rise
Under Andalusian skies
[Outro]
