Skin on fire lyrics

Verse

Neon burning on your collarbone

Bounce don dey soft, but you no slow down

Palm wine sweet for the taste of the night

Your waist dey answer to the low drum sound

I see the fire in your eyes as small talk fade

Two-step rhythm turning every step into a wave

Nobody's counting how long we go dey stay

Just the way your hand finds mine at the start of the sway

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, low and slow?

Something in my chest say let it go

Every pulse in the room agree with me

This is where I lose myself completely

Chorus

Skin on fire from the floor to your neck

Body moving like we ain't got a clock to check

Move for the sake of the move, no more excuses tonight

Skin on fire till the morning light

Verse

Bare feet shifting through the spilled-out wine

Your shoulder blade brushing past my chest line

Log drum knocking every single doubt away

Nobody's leaving till we find what this night say

Sweat and glitter on your collar, shine like gold

Every stranger in the circle start to fold into you

You turn so fast I lose myself for a beat

That's when I know this rhythm dey call me back to thee

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, low and slow?

Something in my chest say let it go

Every pulse in the room agree with me

This is where I lose myself completely

Chorus

Skin on fire from the floor to your neck

Body moving like we ain't got a clock to check

Move for the sake of the move, no more excuses tonight

Skin on fire till the morning light

Bridge

Let the bassline pull us under deeper now

Every single fear I ever know dey drown below

This is my body saying yes to you tonight

No more walls left standing when we hit this height

Chorus

Skin on fire from the floor to your neck

Body moving like we ain't got a clock to check

Move for the sake of the move, no more excuses tonight

Skin on fire till the morning light
