Your shoulder leaning into amber light

Verse 1

Red coals glowing in the steel drum ring

Warm brick holding what the daytime brings

You don't say a word, you just turn your chest

Letting that log drum settle the rest

Pre-Chorus

Gray coil rising from the open grill

Air so heavy and the yard so still

Can you read the sign, can you feel the heat

Two slow steps on the dusty concrete

Chorus

Smoke signals in the low warm night

Your shoulder leaning into amber light

No words moving, but we got it right

Smoke signals in the low warm night

Verse 2

Shadows stretching on the plaster wall

Bass drops heavy, letting nothing fall

Your eyes catch the spark where the embers glow

Every small sway saying all we know

Pre-Chorus

Gray coil rising from the open grill

Air so heavy and the yard so still

Can you read the sign, can you feel the heat

Two slow steps on the dusty concrete

Chorus

Smoke signals in the low warm night

Your shoulder leaning into amber light

No words moving, but we got it right

Smoke signals in the low warm night

Bridge

The sky turns purple and the ashes fall

We don't need a single word at all

Just chest to chest where the rhythm stays

Breathing together through the drifting haze

Chorus

Smoke signals in the low warm night

Your shoulder leaning into amber light

No words moving, but we got it right

Smoke signals in the low warm night
