Intro
Sweat and salt on my collarbone
Verse
Four turns around the old drive-in cone
Ketchup stain on your cheek where you leaned on me
We traded whispers with the static of a tune
Nobody was in a hurry, we just danced till it ended there
Pre-Chorus
Can you hear it call us back to this place?
Where our shadows grew long and slow and dark
Is this what summer's made for — nothing but this?
The hum of the speakers fading into our skin
Chorus
Salt and sand in my pockets, sunburn on your face
This is where we found our own escape
Let the static stay inside us tonight
We'll take the whole world with one slow light
Verse 2
Your mom's old sedan with a busted rearview
Parked by the speakers at half past eleven, I swear we saw
The neon sign out on the edge of town
Blinking out our names in a language nobody knew
You drew a map in the dust with your thumb and my name
Every line was a mile where nothing else could be
Pre-Chorus
Can you hear it call us back to this place?
Where our shadows grew long and slow and dark
Is this what summer's made for — nothing but this?
The hum of the speakers fading into our skin
Chorus
Salt and sand in my pockets, sunburn on your face
This is where we found our own escape
Let the static stay inside us tonight
We'll take the whole world with one slow light
Bridge
Maybe it was just one night
But I'll carry this radio for a lifetime, and you
Chorus
Salt and sand in my pockets, sunburn on your face
This is where we found our own escape
Let the static stay inside us tonight
We'll take the whole world with one slow light
