Salt and Sand

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
