[Verse 1]
Red dust clings to my shoes
I drift through streets where incense burns slow
Sticky heat sticks, every color so close
Lost in the market, don't know where I'll go
[Verse 2]
I melt into a sun—orange, bold and wild
Lonely voice under sari-wrapped smiles
My hands shake tea leaves into the cup
Sweat trickles down, can't bottle this up
[Pre-Chorus]
I let it all in, the noise and the bright
No map, no reason, just holding on tight
[Chorus]
I breathe in saffron haze, la la la
Wander in the smokey maze, la la la
(Ohh, la, la la la la)
Eyes closed, I let the world play
Saffron haze, take me away
[Post-Chorus]
(Ohhh, la la la, ohh)
Take me, take me
(Ohh, la la la, la la)
[Verse 3]
Strangers laugh—music twists through stalls
Henna stains and painted old walls
Feet tapping, hands clapping, time drifts away
I lose myself a little more every day
[Pre-Chorus]
Breathe in the chaos, soak up the sound
Spinning in colors, I'm never coming down
[Chorus]
I breathe in saffron haze, la la la
Wander in the smokey maze, la la la
(Ohh, la, la la la la)
Eyes closed, I let the world play
Saffron haze, take me away
[Bridge]
Oh, let the light in—quiet as the dawn
I don't need answers, just keep moving on
[Solo]
[guitar solo, swells and slides, echoing fuzz]
[Chorus]
I breathe in saffron haze, la la la
Wander in the smokey maze, la la la
(Ohh, la, la la la la)
Eyes closed, I let the world play
Saffron haze, take me away
[Post-Chorus]
(Ohhh, la la la, ohh)
Take me, take me
[Outro]
Red dust settles on me—I'm gone
(ohh, la la la, la la)
