Skin and Dawnlight (Version 2)

Verse

Sweat cools slow along your collarbone

Door swings open, morning air creeps thin

Candle wax pools soft against the sill

Goosebumps rise before the light gets in

Pre-Chorus

We feel the shift before we see it come

We hold the heat a little longer still

Nobody's reaching for the blanket yet

We let the cold find where it will

Chorus

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Verse

Curtain lifts and falls against the frame

Your shoulder blade still damp from the low end bass

Ice cube shrinks inside the glass we left

Cold air traces where your fingers laced

Pre-Chorus

We feel the shift before we see it come

We hold the heat a little longer still

Nobody's reaching for the blanket yet

We let the cold find where it will

Chorus

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Bridge

Ten more seconds, then the light wins

Skin keeps score of the night we're in

Warmth goes quiet, cool creeps through

This is the last edge of the room

Chorus

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight

Skin remembers the dawnlight
