[Intro]
Low lights, slow night
Lipstick on my glass
Trumpet in the corner
Time moving too fast
[Verse 1]
Finger on the rim
Spinning this old drink
Laughing at the band
Trying not to think
Your eyes in the smoke
Cut across the room
Snare brushes the floor
Piano hums the tune
[Chorus]
We were so smooth in the silence
Just a slow dance stuck in my head
Then the mood flipped, hit like sirens
Heart jumped when the beat dropped dead
One look, then the world rewound
Soft sway turned to body-rock sound
Started as jazz in my chest
Then it snapped to a rap in my breath (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Beat hit like a door slam
Bass shook my bones, damn
You laughed, grabbed my left hand
Pulled me to the floor, new plan
Sweat on your neckline, gold chain swing
Words in my mouth like they grew wings
Rhymes tripping out I ain't rehearsed
Every little curse in a half-verse
[Chorus]
We were so smooth in the silence
Just a slow dance stuck in my head
Then the mood flipped, hit like sirens
Heart jumped when the beat dropped dead
One look, then the world rewound
Soft sway turned to body-rock sound
Started as jazz in my chest
Then it snapped to a rap in my breath (hey!)
[Bridge]
Old souls in a brand-new track
You lean in, I don't lean back
Scat talk slipping into slang
Finger snaps bang into gangway chants
Classy chaos, all in one song
Wrong feels right, right feels wrong
You kiss, then the horns come in
And my verse can't hold it in
[Chorus]
We were so smooth in the silence
Just a slow dance stuck in my head
Then the mood flipped, hit like sirens
Heart jumped when the beat dropped dead
One look, then the world rewound
Soft sway turned to body-rock sound
Started as jazz in my chest
Now it lives in this rap in my breath
