Salt in my veins (Version 2)

Verse

Salt in my veins where the drumline hums through me

Bass like a tide pulling low, down to the knee

Feet bare on the concrete floor

Every step is a doorway to more

City lights bleeding orange across the room

You move left and I follow your perfume

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it rising in the dark of air?

Ain't no clock ticking fast where we are

Chorus

Salt in my veins, let this rhythm take me home

Every beat is a current that's all alone

We move like water through the city streets

Free and wide open to the heat

Verse 2

Neon signs reflected on your skin

Streetlamps bleeding red into the spin

Your hand takes mine where the pavement breaks

One more step forward, no one speaks

Glass bottles clinking with every drop

We're the only two dancing under this glow

You laugh and I feel my collarbone go low

I lose count of time when you move like that

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it rising in the dark of air?

Ain't no clock ticking fast where we are

Chorus

Salt in my veins, let this rhythm take me home

Every beat is a current that's all alone

We move like water through the city streets

Free and wide open to the heat

Bridge

Not a minute past, not an hour long

Just you and I under these city lights, where the bass goes on

Chorus

Salt in my veins, let this rhythm take me home

Every beat is a current that's all alone

We move like water through the city streets

Free and wide open to the heat
