🌊 Floating on your back as the light goes, letting the sea hold what you can't. A female-led island indie reggae and Polynesian folk song with loose rock guitar in the choruses. 🌺🌙 --- © Mary Solenne Studio. All lyrics and vocal performance reserved. Lana, lana, let da water hold me. 🌊 [Intro] (Mmm... lana... lana...) [Verse 1] Driftin' up an' down where da echoes sound (…sound… sound…) Low… slow… [soft exhale] I'm jus' an ordinary soul To touch — jus' let go Da boat keep sailin' on a steady load [Chorus] Driftin' up an' down where da echoes sound (da echoes sound…) Low, slow (low… slow…) I'm jus' an ordinary soul To touch — jus' let go [sharp inhale] Da boat keep sailin' on a steady load [long sighed exhale] Ahh… [Verse 2 ] Driftin' up an' down where da echoes sound Low… slow… [shaky inhale] Stars come out, da water hold me whole Salt on my cheek — da sea say, "let go" [quiet laugh through tears] Da boat keep sailin' on a steady load [Chorus ] Driftin' up an' down where da echoes sound (da echoes sound…) Low, slow (low… slow…) I'm jus' an ordinary soul To touch — jus' let [soft gasp] go Da boat keep sailin' on a steady load [exhale] [Bridge] Clouds go by while I listen below Hush… hush… where da turtles go [warm laugh] My girls laughin', light on da swell [breathy, closer to the mic] Salt on your skin, sun on my shoulder [slow inhale] Da tide pull us close… den pull us apart [whispered] I float for two… I stay carryin' your heart (carryin' your heart…) [Final Chorus] Driftin' up an' down where da echoes sound (da echoes sound… da echoes sound…) Low, slow (low… slow…) I'm jus' an ordinary soul Held — an' I let go [big exhale, half-laugh] Da boat keep sailin' — I stay home (lana… lana…) [Outro] Mmm… lana… hanu… (da echoes sound…) [last exhale, voice dissolves into the water] © Mary Solenne Studio.
