Skin Like Amber Light (versione 2)

Verse

Your shoulder brushed mine on the third chord hit

Fingers didn't stay still on the wooden rim

I'm counting the beats where your hand almost lands

Every drop you let slide down my wrist is a sign

You catch my eye over the rim of your glass

Two slow turns before you look away at last

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it's doing to you tonight

Is this just rhythm or something more alive?

Chorus

Skin like amber light, catching every ray

Your hand finds mine in the middle of the play

Bassline is breathing where our bodies bend

I'm caught in this swing and I don't know when

This will end

Hold on tight, let it go slow

One more measure before we both know

Verse

Sweat like honey runs down your collarbone lean

Every time you step back near, the room goes thin

Your thumb traces circles on my open palm

I lose every count of what this is or isn't yet

The snare drum hits soft where your shoulder leans close

Two hearts learning a language nobody knows

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it's doing to you tonight

Is this just rhythm or something more alive?

Chorus

Skin like amber light, catching every ray

Your hand finds mine in the middle of the play

Bassline is breathing where our bodies bend

I'm caught in this swing and I don't know when

This will end

Hold on tight, let it go slow

One more measure before we both know

Bridge

Maybe the song isn't a song at all — maybe it's us

Two drums beating one heart over the blue

No names, no promises, just heat where our hands meet

Just this beat that keeps us swaying to the same sweet treat

Chorus

Skin like amber light, catching every ray

Your hand finds mine in the middle of the play

Bassline is breathing where our bodies bend

I'm caught in this swing and I don't know when

This will end

Hold on tight, let it go slow

One more measure before we both know
