Your shoulder leaning into the light (Version 2) lyrics
Verse 1
Red dust settling on the courtyard floor
Bass drum breathing through the kitchen door
Matches striking on the rough red stone
Your hand resting right beside my own
No need to speak when the kick hits low
The ember tells you where the heat will go
Pre-Chorus
Can you trace it in the air?
Can you feel it waiting there?
Lift your chin, let it rise
Read the drift across my eyes
Chorus
Smoke signals in the low warm night
Your shoulder leaning into the light
No words between us, the rhythm is right
Smoke signals in the low warm night
Verse 2
Charcoal breathing in the iron pan
Ash blown gentle from your open hand
Sweat cooling down where the breeze cuts through
Every blue circle drifting back to you
Heels in the gravel keeping steady count
Nothing to settle, nothing to doubt
Pre-Chorus
Can you trace it in the air?
Can you feel it waiting there?
Lift your chin, let it rise
Read the drift across my eyes
Chorus
Smoke signals in the low warm night
Your shoulder leaning into the light
No words between us, the rhythm is right
Smoke signals in the low warm night
Bridge
The fire goes gray, the heat stays deep
The ground remembers what the bodies keep
One breath out, one step slow
Nowhere else we need to go
Chorus
Smoke signals in the low warm night
Your shoulder leaning into the light
No words between us, the rhythm is right
Smoke signals in the low warm night
