Move Like Water

[Intro: flowing water and soft shakers] [MARÉ] Don’t follow the beat. [Whispered response] Then what do I follow? [MARÉ] Me. [Verse 1] Whole floor crowded, but you find a space Never look hurried, never lose your pace Everybody counting, trying to stay on time You move when you want and the rhythm falls in line Blue light rolling on the side of your face One slow turn and you change the whole place No sharp edges, nothing looking planned You slip through the room like the tide through my hands [Pre-Chorus] Left when they go right Slow when the drum gets loud You don’t chase the rhythm The rhythm follows you around [Chorus] Move like water Come a little closer Roll with the bass Let it carry you over Move like water Nothing getting harder No wrong step When you move like water Flow-flow Nice and slow Let your whole body go Flow-flow I wanna know How you move like water [Post-Chorus] Agua, agua Move like water Agua, agua Come a little closer [Verse 2] I tried your movement, nearly lost my feet You caught my shoulder, kept me on the beat Said, “Stop thinking, let your body decide” Then you pulled me closer with the turn of the tide Now we’re in the middle with the room going fast But the way that we’re moving makes the moment last Your hand on mine, no reason to speak We make our own rhythm underneath the beat [Pre-Chorus] Left when they go right Slow when the drum gets loud We don’t chase the rhythm The rhythm follows us around [Chorus] Move like water Come a little closer Roll with the bass Let it carry you over Move like water Nothing getting harder No wrong step When you move like water Flow-flow Nice and slow Let your whole body go Flow-flow I wanna know How you move like water [Percussion Break: congas, shakers and water-drop rhythm] [Call and Response] [MARÉ] Suave. [Response] Suave. [MARÉ] Despacio. [Response] Despacio. [MARÉ] A la izquierda. [Response] A la izquierda. [MARÉ] Now let it flow. [Beat Drop] [Rhythmic Verse] One wave high One wave low One step fast Then let it go Shoulders loose Feet in time Your current crossing into mine No map No line No need to get it right Just move like the ocean Under moonlight [Bridge: airy vocal] If the music stops We’ll keep moving still You don’t need a drum When the feeling is real From the coast to the floor From your hand into mine Every movement finds another Like the water finds the tide [Final Chorus] We move like water Closer and closer Roll with the bass Let it carry us over Move like water Nothing getting harder No wrong step When we move like water Flow-flow Nice and slow Let your whole body go Flow-flow Now we both know How to move like water [Final Post-Chorus] Agua, agua Move like water Agua, agua Closer and closer [Outro: percussion fades into waves] [MARÉ] See? No counting. [Response] You stepped on my foot twice. [MARÉ] That was the tide.
