Skin Like Amber (Version 2)

Intro

(Sip the amber, let it slow down)

Bare feet on the boards, warm on my skin

Verse

Neon hums in my ribs where the sun used to be

Glass of whiskey glows like a lantern sea

I took off all the things that I don't need no more

Left them tangled at the door

Pre-Chorus

And why do I feel so free?

Is it this old wooden floor or is it just me?

Chorus

Skin like amber in the fading light

Gonna hold onto this warm, slow night

Don't need a reason when every nerve hums right

This is how we turn into gold tonight

(Sip the amber, let it slow down)

Bare feet on the boards, warm on my skin

Verse

Your collarbone glows where the city used to be

The whole room's empty but this light stays with me

I took off all the words that I never meant to say

Left them floating out at bay

Pre-Chorus

And why do I feel so free?

Is it this old wooden floor or is it just me?

Chorus

Skin like amber in the fading light

Gonna hold onto this warm, slow night

Don't need a reason when every nerve hums right

This is how we turn into gold tonight

(Sip the amber, let it slow down)

Bare feet on the boards, warm on my skin

Bridge

Maybe I just needed something to burn

Something that would leave nothing but warmth

Not a fire that devours but one that glows bright and still

This is how we turn into gold tonight

Chorus

Skin like amber in the fading light

Gonna hold onto this warm, slow night

Don't need a reason when every nerve hums right

This is how we turn into gold tonight

(Sip the amber, let it slow down)

Bare feet on the boards, warm on my skin
