Lyrics

Verse 1

Warm wind through the open gate

Bare feet on the patio slate

Three a.m. and the ice runs low

Sweat shines on your collarbone

Log drum humming down below

Pre-Chorus

Move slow, don't break the frame

Nobody knows your name

One pull, you bring me near

Nothing but the low end here

Chorus

Slow turn, easy spark

Catch your shadow in the dark

Step close, leave a mark

Catch your shadow in the dark

Verse 2

Cold drops on a plastic cup

That kick drum never lets us up

Thin cotton sticking to my spine

Nineteen, twenty, out of time

Red taillight through the garden screen

Hottest night we've ever seen

Pre-Chorus

Move slow, don't break the frame

Nobody knows your name

One pull, you bring me near

Nothing but the low end here

Chorus

Slow turn, easy spark

Catch your shadow in the dark

Step close, leave a mark

Catch your shadow in the dark

Bridge

Skin warm, air thick

Heavy where the fingers grip

Hold right there, don't move

Locked inside this summer groove

Don't move

Right there

Chorus

Slow turn, easy spark

Catch your shadow in the dark

Step close, leave a mark

Catch your shadow in the dark
