Skin on skin while the red smoke is rising lyrics
Verse 1
Red wood burning down low in the sand
You pull me closer with an open hand
Dust on our ankles, heat on our knees
The log drum breathing through the dry grass trees
Pre-Chorus
Feel that weight drop down in your chest
No words needed, let the quiet do the rest
Count to four on the heels of your feet
Right where the ground and the low embers meet
Chorus
We sway slow in the firelit horizon
Skin on skin while the red smoke is rising
We sway slow in the firelit horizon
Heavy bass holding the dark where we stand
Verse 2
Ash drifting gray in the rim of the cup
Nobody waiting for the sun to come up
Your shoulder heavy on the curve of my side
Finding the space where the shadows divide
Pre-Chorus
Feel that weight drop down in your chest
No words needed, let the quiet do the rest
Count to four on the heels of your feet
Right where the ground and the low embers meet
Chorus
We sway slow in the firelit horizon
Skin on skin while the red smoke is rising
We sway slow in the firelit horizon
Heavy bass holding the dark where we stand
Bridge
Stay right here in the bend of the drum
Forget where we were or where we come from
Just the red glow washing your brow
Nothing exists but the two of us now
Chorus
We sway slow in the firelit horizon
Skin on skin while the red smoke is rising
We sway slow in the firelit horizon
Heavy bass holding the dark where we stand
