Skin & Streetlight (النسخة 2)

Verse

Lamp post drips its amber down

Catches the curve of your shoulder blade

Ten steps of dark, then the glow again

Skin keeps score of the light and shade

Your breath goes silver in the cold

My palm finds warmth where the sodium falls

Every pool of light we cross

Slows the pulse and stalls the clock

Pre-Chorus

We stall between the lit and the black

We trade the heat, we don't look back

Ten more steps till the next lamp glows

We stretch the walk, we take it slow

Chorus

Skin drinks streetlight

Skin drinks streetlight

Hour stalls where the two lights meet

Skin drinks streetlight

Verse 2

Collarbone holds a coin of gold

Fingers trace where the color spills

Your jacket sleeve brushed against mine

Static warm on a cooling street

Fog comes soft off the both of us

Halo bends where our shadows touch

Every pool of light we share

Feels like standing still in the air

Pre-Chorus

We stall between the lit and the black

We trade the heat, we don't look back

Ten more steps till the next lamp glows

We stretch the walk, we take it slow

Chorus

Skin drinks streetlight

Skin drinks streetlight

Hour stalls where the two lights meet

Skin drinks streetlight

Bridge

Sky starts bruising at the edge

Amber fading into gray

Your hand stays warm inside of mine

We keep walking anyway

Last lamp flickers, then goes soft

Dawn comes closer, breath by breath

Still the heat stays on my skin

Long after the light has left

Chorus

Skin drinks streetlight

Skin drinks streetlight

Hour stalls where the two lights meet

Skin drinks streetlight
