“Say It with Your Shoulders” lyrics

Say it with your shoulders

I can hear you from here

I asked your name beside the speaker
You said it twice; I heard it wrong
You laughed and pointed to the middle
I knew enough to follow you along
Your friend was waving with a paper fan
You took it, cooled my face and gave it back

We could spend the night explaining
Or let this little rhythm make a start

Say it with your shoulders
Tell me with your feet
You can keep your number, baby
Give this little song to me

Just a little, just a little
Let me see that move again

You make a move so small I almost miss it
I try too hard and nearly knock your drink
Your friends all cheer like we just won a medal
You bow before I get a chance to think
Nobody here has got tomorrow sorted
Your hand is warm; the next song starts in three

You say you're leaving with your people
I say, There's one more chorus if you like

Say it with your shoulders
Tell me with your feet
You can keep your number, baby
Give this little song to me

You don't owe me where you're going
I don't need to make you mine
There's a little bit of magic
We can leave here when it's time

Say it with your shoulders
Tell me with your feet
You can keep your number, baby
Give this little song to me

Say it with your shoulders
Tell me with your feet
You can keep your number, baby
Give this little song to me

Say it with your shoulders
There it is, one more time
