[Verse 1, Oud & Ney Flute Intro] I know the voice of sorrow still whispers Habits of ruin still knock at your door But look at you now, with the Friend beside you You're standing stronger than ever before [Pre-Chorus, Slow Darbuka Build] Stay in that light, don't turn away You're meant to bloom, not fade away [Chorus, Female Backing Vocals Echoing Last Line] Keep squeezing drops of the Sun From prayers and work and music From laughter that dances like flamesFrom every glance your Beloved gives Even from your body’s smallest grace Yes, squeeze the Sun, squeeze the Sun [Instrumental transition] [Verse 2, Percussion Enters Softly] Learn the truth from a false delight Some coins buy joy but steal your nights They drag you broken through foolish ways Behind illusions, through endless haze [Pre-Chorus, Rising Ney and Oud Accent] But you're with the Friend, let love ignite And learn what makes your spirit take flight [Chorus, Harmonized Vocals] Keep squeezing drops of the Sun From prayers and work and music From laughter that dances like flame From every glance your Beloved gives Even from your body’s smallest grace Yes, squeeze the Sun, squeeze the Sun [Bridge, Instrumental Interlude – Ney Flute Solo with Whispered Vocals] (When you say His name, the world listens…) (My ears long to kiss in praise…) (Your wisdom feeds the stars…) [Final Chorus, Powerfully Layered Vocals] Keep squeezing drops of the Sun From prayers and work and music From laughter that dances like flame From the sacred, the small, the divine Your body’s holy motion in time Yes, squeeze the Sun, squeeze the Sun, squeeze the Sun... [Outro, Slowing Oud & Fading Ney, Echoed Whisper] Now, sweet one, cast your votes… For Dancing.
