Hips keep time where the shadows go lyrics

Verse 1

Power cuts out on the third floor room

Candle flame bends in the low bass boom

Speaker still breathing through the wall

Your hand finds mine in the dark hallway crawl

No light needed for the way you move

Skin remembers what the eyes don't prove

Pre-Chorus

Floorboards humming with the sub below

Bodies reading what the dark won't show

Every silence got a rhythm of its own

Chorus

You don't say a word, but I know

Hips keep time where the shadows go

You don't say a word, but I know

Heartbeat louder than the radio

Verse 2

Sweat and candle wax on the wooden floor

Neighbor's generator hums outside the door

Your shoulder finds the curve of my chest

Breath syncing slow to the kick drum rest

Nobody's watching, the room's gone blind

But the pulse between us stays right on time

Pre-Chorus

Floorboards humming with the sub below

Bodies reading what the dark won't show

Every silence got a rhythm of its own

Chorus

You don't say a word, but I know

Hips keep time where the shadows go

You don't say a word, but I know

Heartbeat louder than the radio

Bridge

Lights come back and the room turns gold

Same two shadows, same story told

But now I see what my hands already knew

Every dark room led me straight to you

Chorus

You don't say a word, but I know

Hips keep time where the shadows go

You don't say a word, but I know

Heartbeat louder than the radio
