Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the ground, we bury
The seeds of a pear tree
All the things we carried
Now we're down to our bare feet
[Verse 2]
May I have this dance to make it up to you?
Can I say something crazy? I love you
Give me both your hands to make it up to you
Let me spin and excite you
[Verse 3]
We are bound to inherit
The sins of our parents
And all the people we passed through
Now we're down to the last two
[Verse 4]
May I have this dance to make it up to you?
Can I say something crazy? I love you
Give me both your hands to make it up to you
Let me spin and excite you
[Verse 5]
You've got your, your mother's eyes
You've got your grandmother's ring
You've got your daddy's discernment (To make it up to you)
Girl, you did your thing, oh, give me one more
[Verse 6]
One, two, one, two, always on beat
You must have been born with two right feet (To make it up to you)
I know you've been looking for something concrete
You must have been born with two right feet
[Verse 7]
Say one, two, one, two, always on beat
I know you've been looking for something concrete (To make it up to you)
You must have been born with two right feet
You must have been born with two right feet
[Verse 8]
Said I love you more than your mother
More than you love yourself
[Verse 9]
May I have this dance to make it up to you?
Can I say something crazy? I love you
Give me one more chance, give me one more chance
Give me one more (To make it up to you)
Let me spin and excite you
[Verse 10]
To make it up to you
Can I say something crazy? I love you
Give me one more chance, give me one more chance
Give me one more (To make it up to you)
Let me spin and excite you
