Verse 1
Red soil rising from the courtyard floor
Cool night pushing through the open back door
You take two steps, you drop your head low
No space between us where the log drums go
Beads of sweat along the back of your neck
Shifting your weight on the timber deck
Pre-Chorus
Do you feel it under your feet
Do you feel it pull in the heat
Listen close, don't say a thing
Wait for the wire to sing
Chorus
Dust on your ankles, weight on your heels
Move how the deep bass makes the ground feel
Dust on your ankles, steady and slow
We let the night do what bodies know
Verse 2
Tire tracks fading in the yard outside
Nowhere left for the shadows to hide
You touch my wrist, you pull with the sway
Counting the hours that we gave away
Cold glass sweating on a plastic chair
Cedar smoke hanging in the heavy air
Pre-Chorus
Do you feel it under your feet
Do you feel it pull in the heat
Listen close, don't say a thing
Wait for the wire to sing
Chorus
Dust on your ankles, weight on your heels
Move how the deep bass makes the ground feel
Dust on your ankles, steady and slow
We let the night do what bodies know
Bridge
Morning is waiting on the other side
Out on the pavement where the taxis ride
Stay in the circle, keep your feet down
Leave all the trouble in the sleeping town
Chorus
Dust on your ankles, weight on your heels
Move how the deep bass makes the ground feel
Dust on your ankles, steady and slow
We let the night do what bodies know
