Ritmo en la Piel

Verse

Suitcase by the doorway, taxi running slow

Your cologne still lingers where the candles used to glow

Last night on the balcony, we danced without a sound

Now the record's spinning but you won't turn around

Three years on this island, now you catch the tide

I'm folding up your t-shirt, keeping it inside

The clock above the kitchen ticks like it's a drum

Counting every heartbeat till the taxi comes

Pre-Chorus

Is this really ending or the start of something new?

Can I keep the rhythm even without you?

Tell me if tomorrow still remembers how we move

Because my body's aching but it's aching for the truth

Chorus

Ritmo en la piel, it won't let go

Even when you're leaving, my hips still know

The beat keeps beating underneath my skin

Goodbye tonight, but the dance begins

Ritmo en la piel, bittersweet and true

I'll keep on moving till I move past you

Verse

Airport lights are humming, gate thirty-four

I trace your name in perfume on the bathroom door

You said the ocean's calling, said you found your key

I'm learning how to breathe now to a different beat

New city, different bassline, strangers on the floor

My feet remember lessons that you taught before

The mirror ball is spinning like the world tonight

Turning every shadow into something bright

Pre-Chorus

Is this really ending or the start of something new?

Can I keep the rhythm even without you?

Tell me if tomorrow still remembers how we move

Because my body's aching but it's aching for the truth

Chorus

Ritmo en la piel, it won't let go

Even when you're leaving, my hips still know

The beat keeps beating underneath my skin

Goodbye tonight, but the dance begins

Ritmo en la piel, bittersweet and true

I'll keep on moving till I move past you

Bridge

Maybe love's a rhythm that was never meant to stay

Just a song that teaches you to find another way

I'll thank the nights we burned before we turned to smoke

'Cause the fire taught my feet the steps I need to know

Chorus

Ritmo en la piel, it won't let go

Even when you're leaving, my hips still know

The beat keeps beating underneath my skin

Goodbye tonight, but the dance begins

Ritmo en la piel, bittersweet and true

I'll keep on moving till I move past you
