Close Like the Kick Drum

Verse

Kick lands soft on your sternum

Counts your heartbeat down to mine

One-two, we move on the same line

Skin keeps time when the light goes dim

Pre-Chorus

Every beat leaves a little gap

Every gap, you fill it in

Nothing between us but the snap

Close as the kick and the skin

Chorus

Close like the kick drum

Close like the kick drum

Heartbeat and downbeat, we come

Close like the kick drum

Verse

Shoulder to shoulder, same slow drop

Your pulse rides in on the one

Smoke curls where the rhythm stops

We fall in before it's done

Pre-Chorus

Every beat leaves a little gap

Every gap, you fill it in

Nothing between us but the snap

Close as the kick and the skin

Chorus

Close like the kick drum

Close like the kick drum

Heartbeat and downbeat, we come

Close like the kick drum

Bridge

No air between the hit and the hold

Your chest against the beat I know

Kick drum keeps us close

Outro

Close like the kick drum

Close like the kick drum
