No need to speak what the body knows (Version 2)

Verse 1

Sun sits heavy on the corrugated tin

Log drum knocking where the dusk creeps in

You turn your shoulder to the open air

Red dust drifting through the braids in your hair

No words spoken across the yard

Bassline moving through the red clay hard

Pre-Chorus

Catch the slow drift in the air

Tell me what you see right there

Two steps closer, let it breathe

Nothing else we need to leave

Chorus

Smoke signals rising between you and me

Feet on the ground where the rhythm runs free

No need to speak what the body knows

Smoke signals rising as the log drum rolls

Verse 2

Cinder on the brickwork burning down low

Shadow on your collarbone taking it slow

Sweat cools soft on the back of my hand

Bass keeps rolling through the cooling sand

You nod twice to the four-four count

Quiet is the only thing we talk about

Pre-Chorus

Catch the slow drift in the air

Tell me what you see right there

Two steps closer, let it breathe

Nothing else we need to leave

Chorus

Smoke signals rising between you and me

Feet on the ground where the rhythm runs free

No need to speak what the body knows

Smoke signals rising as the log drum rolls

Bridge

Sky turns purple, the coals turn gray

We let the evening take the rest away

Just a breath and a sway in the dark

Every little movement is a quiet spark

Chorus

Smoke signals rising between you and me

Feet on the ground where the rhythm runs free

No need to speak what the body knows

Smoke signals rising as the log drum rolls
