Salt and Amber (Version 3)

Intro

Copper light on your collarbone

Verse 1

The drum sets fire in the dark of the yard

You don't move to the kick at first

Your eyes are on the horizon line

Watching something you can't define

I follow where your shadow falls

Every step takes us further from the wall

The crowd is breathing but I see only you

In the amber glow before it turns blue

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, low and slow?

Something hidden that nobody knows

Chorus

Salt on your skin where the drum hits your chest

Amber air where our bodies find rest

Hold this current till the stars turn cold

Where the music ends, but we don't fold

Verse 2

Neon dies behind a row of palms

Only the pulse keeps us from falling

Your hand finds mine in the rising tide

Every beat pulls us closer to the other side

I lose you in the crowd for a second's time

Then I see your collarbone shine like gold in mine

The drums are calling, we don't need a name

Just this rhythm where our hearts hold the frame

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, low and slow?

Something hidden that nobody knows

Chorus

Salt on your skin where the drum hits your chest

Amber air where our bodies find rest

Hold this current till the stars turn cold

Where the music ends, but we don't fold

Bridge

Not tonight, not ever let it go

This is what we were made for, don't you know?

Keep your pulse against mine and never look back

We are the fire that rises from the track

Chorus

Salt on your skin where the drum hits your chest

Amber air where our bodies find rest

Hold this current till the stars turn cold

Where the music ends, but we don't fold
