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
