Verse
Sixteen floors above the traffic
Wind unbuttons what the night began
Glass towers hold our echo static
Your palm finds the small of my hand
Pre-Chorus
City spreads out gold and humming
Every window holding one small sun
Something in the air keeps coming
Rising slow until we're one
Chorus
Skin against the skyline
Breathing with the neon glow
Skin against the skyline
Nowhere left for us to go
Skin against the skyline
Higher than the traffic below
Skin against the skyline
Only thing I need to know
Verse
Steam rises off the water tower
Your shoulder catches amber light
City clock keeps losing power
Minutes blur to just tonight
Pre-Chorus
City spreads out gold and humming
Every window holding one small sun
Something in the air keeps coming
Rising slow until we're one
Chorus
Skin against the skyline
Breathing with the neon glow
Skin against the skyline
Nowhere left for us to go
Skin against the skyline
Higher than the traffic below
Skin against the skyline
Only thing I need to know
Bridge
Below us the streets keep moving
Up here time forgets to turn
Below us the world keeps moving
Up here we just stay and burn
Chorus
Skin against the skyline
Breathing with the neon glow
Skin against the skyline
Nowhere left for us to go
Skin against the skyline
Higher than the traffic below
Skin against the skyline
Only thing I need to know
