[Intro] I was only here to listen That was the plan Then the drums got personal I came in late, my head still loud Just another face inside the crowd You tapped your glass in a curious way Three little hits, then one slipped away I tried to keep my poker face That rolling bass had other plans My left foot moved an inch or two You smiled like that was nothing new You raise an eyebrow I count to three The drummer leaves a gap Just for me I try to hold it One bar more Then my shoes say yes On number four [Hook] Shoulders first, then a little turn You've got the timing, I've got to learn You ask who taught me, I point to the drums You start laughing, then the low end comes Shoulders first, don't make a scene I was standing still just a minute ago One small pause in the tambourine And there goes everything I know You started this [Drop] Shoulders first You step beside me, match the snare Then leave a beat suspended there I copy you, get half of it wrong You laugh and pull me back along We trade a turn, we trade a grin You catch the gap, I settle in No one is showing anyone how We're making up the steps right now You give me that look I know what it means This time I smile And count to three [Hook] Shoulders first, then a little turn You've got the timing, I've got to learn You ask who taught me, I point to the drums You start laughing, then the low end comes Shoulders first, don't make a scene I was standing still just a minute ago One small pause in the tambourine And there goes everything I know No, no Not that move again [Drop] That move again All day long I count the minutes Keep my steps inside the lines Here I am, forgetting numbers Just to catch yours next to mine You count to three I take the fourth And now we're moving Without a word [Hook] Shoulders first, then a little turn You've got the timing, I've got to learn You ask who taught me, I point to the drums You start laughing, then the low end comes Shoulders first, and now you know I came to listen, you made me move One more pause, then let it go There's room for two inside this groove I came to listen You heard me move
