Hands Up in the Dark lyrics

Verse

Sweat on skin in the smoke and steel

Your eyes catch mine where shadows deal

Bare feet moving to the drum's low hum

We find our rhythm before the sun is gone

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine?

Hands up high, let the pulse align

Chorus

Hands up in the dark

Where the drums never stop or start

Hands up in the dark

Moving till the lights come on

Verse

Your hand finds mine among the heat and smoke

We're not alone where the bassline speaks its own voice

Sweat dripping off the arms that we don't share

Same four counts moving everywhere

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine?

Hands up high, let the pulse align

Chorus

Hands up in the dark

Where the drums never stop or start

Hands up in the dark

Moving till the lights come on

Bridge

No need for light where we already know

Just hands and heat and the drum's slow glow

Lost in the rhythm that only we can see

This is the place where we were always meant to be

Chorus

Hands up in the dark

Where the drums never stop or start

Hands up in the dark

Moving till the lights come on
