Skin and Gold (Version 3)

Intro

Heat on the skin

Follow the drum

Verse 1 – male vocal

Red clay cooling underfoot

Circle of strangers turning loose

Your shoulder finds mine in the crowd

Bassline keeps us moving through

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing higher?

Every heartbeat draws us near

Chorus – call-and-response

Skin and gold, we burn together

Skin and gold, we move like water

Heat on the skin, never let go

Sun goes down but the drum don't slow

Verse 2 – male vocal

Sweat running down your collarbone

Marimba hums low in my chest

Two shadows moving as one

Nobody's counting the rest

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing higher?

Every heartbeat draws us near

Chorus – call-and-response

Skin and gold, we burn together

Skin and gold, we move like water

Heat on the skin, never let go

Sun goes down but the drum don't slow

Bridge

Your hand finds mine through the smoke

No words to say what this is for

Chorus – call-and-response

Skin and gold, we burn together

Skin and gold, we move like water

Heat on the skin, never let go

Sun goes down but the drum don't slow
