Burning Hips on Ash (Version 2)

Intro

Burning hips on ash

Verse

Shoes in the sand where your footprint used to be

Grey sun rising over you and me

Your pulse is still in my collarbone

Even when it's gone, I feel it as a hum

Every step I take keeps drawing me back to this place

Where your heat is fading into the haze

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear that same kick in your chest now?

Is that your heartbeat or is it mine?

I don't need to see your face to know how this feels

Tell me am I still dancing with you or not yet?

Every step keeps taking us back to the dark and the sound

Chorus

Burning hips on ash, burning hips on ash

Still holding your heat where your body used to pass

Burning hips on ash, still moving through time

Pulse of a love that refuses to die

Verse 2

I let go of your hand but I'm still in the space

Where our bodies kept time before we lost the pace

Your eyes are gone but my skin remembers what they said

Every movement draws me back into this instead

Of walking away, which one is still you and me?

Or am I just chasing a ghost on these streets

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear that same kick in your chest now?

Is that your heartbeat or is it mine?

I don't need to see your face to know how this feels

Tell me am I still dancing with you or not yet?

Every step keeps taking us back to the dark and the sound

Chorus

Burning hips on ash, burning hips on ash

Still holding your heat where your body used to pass

Burning hips on ash, still moving through time

Pulse of a love that refuses to die

Bridge

Maybe it's not about losing what we had at all

Maybe it's just finding a way for love to live on

Every step takes me back but every breath makes me new

So let the dark turn you into something I'll still love too

Chorus

Burning hips on ash, burning hips on ash

Still holding your heat where your body used to pass

Burning hips on ash, still moving through time

Pulse of a love that refuses to die

Outro

Burning hips on ash

Still in the dark and it's still alive
