Skin Against the Sun lyrics
Verse
Red dust rising where the sun meets skin
Bassline pulls us in together again
Every step a rhythm that we both understand
Hands up catching gold like it's falling from above
Sweat on shoulders turning amber and bright
Feet don't need the beat to move tonight
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the heat climb higher?
Are you feeling alive with me now?
Let go of the night, let go of fear
This is ours and we're standing here
Chorus
Skin against the sun, skin against the sun
Moving where the rhythm comes undone
No more shadows when the drums come round
Skin against the sun, skin against the sound
We are gold now, hands up in the light
Skin against the sun, we are one tonight
Verse 2
Sweat and smoke and a drum so deep
Bassline running through my chest like steam
Your shoulder finds mine and holds tight through the heat
Every beat is a step that we repeat together on our feet
Light cuts gold across your face again
This is how I feel it, feel it now
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the heat climb higher?
Are you feeling alive with me now?
Let go of the night, let go of fear
This is ours and we're standing here
Chorus
Skin against the sun, skin against the sun
Moving where the rhythm comes undone
No more shadows when the drums come round
Skin against the sun, skin against the sound
We are gold now, hands up in the light
Skin against the sun, we are one tonight
Bridge
Every beat leaves a mark on my chest now
Gold dust falling like nothing can stop us
I don't need the dark when I have this glow
This is how I know where love goes
No more shadows when the drums come round
This is ours and we're standing here on the ground
Chorus
Skin against the sun, skin against the sun
Moving where the rhythm comes undone
No more shadows when the drums come round
Skin against the sun, skin against the sound
We are gold now, hands up in the light
Skin against the sun, we are one tonight
