(ooh) Late room, low lamp,
I settle in
Mmm,
let the groove begin
I slide in easy with a half-smile grin Dust on the needle
and the night rolls in My thoughts move sideways on a lazy
swing You lean in close like you can hear me think
No need to rush it,
let the bar line bend We talk in small clues,
let the phrases mend Hands on the table,
heartbeat keeping time I paint the air soft and you answer mine
Stay right here
in the pocket with me
Small fire, slow burn,
easy to read
When the room turns warm,
I breathe your name
Ride that low flame,
keep it steady My heart stays cool but my touch is ready
Slow groove, all night,
don't let it break You move one inch and the whole room
sways Ride that low flame,
keep it steady Hold me
in the line where the sweet chords play No big words,
just time well spent
You and me in the velvet moment
You trace a circle on the edge of the glass I watch
the seconds loosen up and pass A little boldness in the way
you laugh A little ache that makes the good stuff last I
tell the truth in pieces,
never loud You catch the meaning hiding in the crowd The organ
answers with a midnight hue Every quiet bar keeps bringing me to
you (ooh)
If I fall, let it be this way
Gentle and low, no need to explain
(ahh) We got a little gold in the grain
Ride that low flame,
keep it steady
My heart stays cool but my touch is ready
Slow groove, all night,
don't let it break You move one inch and the whole room
sways Ride that low flame,
keep it steady Hold me in the line where the sweet chords
play No
big words, just time well spent You and me
in the velvet
moment Stay in that low flame
Stay in that slow sway
(ooh) Mmm
