Skin Like Starlight (Version 2)

Verse

Neon sign blinking out a secret code

Palm trees swaying like they know the road

Salt air catching on your collarbone

Radio static turning into home

Ten thousand hearts beating in one time

We're the sparklers burning out of line

Pre-Chorus

So what if nobody's watching us now

So what if this is the only town

Can you feel it climbing, can you feel it rise

Before the headlights catch our eyes

Chorus

Skin like starlight, we don't need a stage

Barefoot in the gold light, we turn up every page

We're chasing fireflies down an empty street

Running on rhythm and nothing but heat

Skin like starlight, we own this ground

This is our anthem before it's loud

Verse

Boardwalk speakers crackling out a song we know

Saltwater taffy melting slow as the glow

Every windowpane lit up for us alone

Sneakers slapping on the empty road

Hands up catching fireflies like they're gold

We don't need tomorrow when tonight's already told

Pre-Chorus

So what if nobody's watching us now

So what if this is the only town

Can you feel it climbing, can you feel it rise

Before the headlights catch our eyes

Chorus

Skin like starlight, we don't need a stage

Barefoot in the gold light, we turn up every page

We're chasing fireflies down an empty street

Running on rhythm and nothing but heat

Skin like starlight, we own this ground

This is our anthem before it's loud

Bridge

Someday we'll leave these streets behind

But tonight's ours, no clock to cross the line

No names in lights, just skin against the sky

Just us catching every passing light

So let the static sing, let it never fade

We're already home, we're already made

Chorus

Skin like starlight, we don't need a stage

Barefoot in the gold light, we turn up every page

We're chasing fireflies down an empty street

Running on rhythm and nothing but heat

Skin like starlight, we own this ground

This is our anthem before it's loud
