Delta Echoes Groove

In the midnight hour where the heartbeats sing Echoes of the delta where the stories begin Sweat on the strings, bass humming low Voices rising like rivers letting the feelings float From the cotton fields to the neon lights We weave our pain into melodies tight A groove that pulls you under smooth as silk skin R&B whispering, pulling me in All this rhythm in my soul, it's calling my name Blues in the blood, setting my spirit aflame Soulful cries, dancing on syncopated beats Emotional, it's crashing at my feet From the horns that fell to the keys That's how we're alive in the groove under the same sky R&B forever holding me close And every heartbreak it's what I love most And every heartbreak it's what I love most Traditions carved deep in the bones of the night African fire burning bright in the fight Electric guitar, weeping drums, keeping time Intimate confessions, yours and mine Melancholy lovers swaying in the dark Sensual shadows leaving their mark No polished facade, just raw And true, this is our anthem, me and you All this rhythm in my soul, it's calling my name Blues in the blood, setting my spirit aflame Soulful cries, dancing on syncopated beats Emotional, it's crashing at my feet From the horns that fell to the keys That's how we're alive in the groove under the same sky R&B forever, holding me close And every heartbreak, it's what I love most We'll slow it down now, feel the bassline drop Horns fading like a lover's sob We've come from the roots, through the storms and the fire Building this sound, taking it higher No chains can hold what the spirit sings And there ain't no love And there ain't no love All this rhythm in my soul, it's calling my name Blues in the blood, setting my spirit aflame Soulful cries, dancing on syncopated beats Emotional, it's crashing at my feet Fee-wee, R&B, holding me
