Skin Like Gold (Version 2)

Intro

Heat on my skin where your hand stayed

Verse 1 – male vocal

Palm oil dripping slow down your neck

Shadows dance like they know every step

Your eyes catch mine across the floor

I forget why I came through that door

Pre-Chorus – call and response, female lead

Hold on, hold on

Let it go, let it glow

Skin remembers before we speak

Skin remembers how to move

Chorus

Skin like gold in a light I know

Melts down slow when you take control

Move with me till the night lets go

Nobody's leaving till it breaks dawn

Skin like gold and it never fades

We got this rhythm nobody erased

Verse 2 – male vocal

Your collarbone catching every ray

Fingers brush mine, no need to say

Floor is warm from all our feet

I've been here before, but not for me

Pre-Chorus – call and response, female lead

Hold on, hold on

Let it go, let it glow

Skin remembers before we speak

Skin remembers how to move

Chorus

Skin like gold in a light I know

Melts down slow when you take control

Move with me till the night lets go

Nobody's leaving till it breaks dawn

Skin like gold and it never fades

We got this rhythm nobody erased

Bridge – female lead, softer delivery

Not your name that I'm holding on to

Just how warm it stays when you move through me

Let the bass line answer what we're too shy to say

This is how we learn to stay

Chorus

Skin like gold in a light I know

Melts down slow when you take control

Move with me till the night lets go

Nobody's leaving till it breaks dawn

Skin like gold and it never fades

We got this rhythm nobody erased
