Smoke signals in the room (version 2)

Verse 1

Red cup resting on the speaker box

Bare feet shifting on the paving blocks

You catch my eye through the rising haze

Let the log drum count the days

Two steps left and your shoulder turns

Slow heat waiting while the cedar burns

Pre-Chorus

You don't say a word to me

Just that sway I came to see

Feel the weight inside the floor

We don't need the words no more

Chorus

Smoke signals in the room

Heavy bass and sweet perfume

No talk, just the roll of the drum

Wait right here till the morning comes

Smoke signals in the room

Watch the way your shoulders move

Verse 2

Sweat on the glass, cool against my palm

Whole yard shaking but your eyes stay calm

Damp white cotton on your collarbone

Never felt so far from alone

Your shadow leans where the rhythm breaks

Every single breath that the kick drum takes

Pre-Chorus

You don't say a word to me

Just that sway I came to see

Feel the weight inside the floor

We don't need the words no more

Chorus

Smoke signals in the room

Heavy bass and sweet perfume

No talk, just the roll of the drum

Wait right here till the morning comes

Smoke signals in the room

Watch the way your shoulders move

Bridge

Dust rises up around our knees

Warm wind blowing through the lemon trees

Nothing to hide, nothing to prove

Just the ground and the way you move

Chorus

Smoke signals in the room

Heavy bass and sweet perfume

No talk, just the roll of the drum

Wait right here till the morning comes

Smoke signals in the room

Watch the way your shoulders move
