Ghosts in Your Hips 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Your shirt is hanging from the hook by itself

Pockets full of cigarettes that nobody's smoked yet

You pull my hair back till it feels like home

And I don't think about where we came from or where we go

Just your hands on skin that you say reminds you of your sister

And your sister was always quiet like this

Pre-Chorus

Can we stay here in the static and not move an inch?

Hold my hips till all the clocks stop counting time

Is it okay to be a ghost who never left her name?

Am I still me if nobody's here to say it out loud?

Let the hum of this house turn every worry thin

And let your hands keep finding where they fit best in mine

Chorus

Ghosts in your hips, we're the same two bodies that don't exist anywhere else

The smoke from last night never made it out the door and neither did our names

Every hour's a slow-motion picture of us falling softly into ourselves

I'm not lost if I'm here with you and nobody asks to see my face

Ghosts in your hips, ghosts in your hips

We're the same two bodies that don't exist anywhere else

Just a pair of ghosts who found each other right where the sun left off

Just a pair of ghosts who found each other right where the sun left off

Ghosts in your hips, we're not gone yet

I'm not lost if I'm here with you and nobody asks to see my face

Ghosts in your hips, ghosts in your hips

We don't need an exit when our bodies still hold on

Just a pair of ghosts who found each other right where the sun left off

Verse

Your phone is dead so we can't look at any proof

Only what we feel in these four walls and how they move

I took the ring you gave me back from where I hid it under my pillow

And now your voice is humming the same low note that the whole house is pulling

You say my name softly when the streetlights cut through

Pre-Chorus

Can we stay here in the static and not move an inch?

Hold my hips till all the clocks stop counting time

Is it okay to be a ghost who never left her name?

Am I still me if nobody's here to say it out loud?

Let the hum of this house turn every worry thin

And let your hands keep finding where they fit best in mine

Chorus

Ghosts in your hips, we're the same two bodies that don't exist anywhere else

The smoke from last night never made it out the door and neither did our names

Every hour's a slow-motion picture of us falling softly into ourselves

I'm not lost if I'm here with you and nobody asks to see my face

Ghosts in your hips, ghosts in your hips

We're the same two bodies that don't exist anywhere else

Just a pair of ghosts who found each other right where the sun left off

Just a pair of ghosts who found each other right where the sun left off

Ghosts in your hips, we're not gone yet

I'm not lost if I'm here with you and nobody asks to see my face

Ghosts in your hips, ghosts in your hips

We don't need an exit when our bodies still hold on

Just a pair of ghosts who found each other right where the sun left off
