Skin Remembers 4

Verse

I still feel your palm on my lower back where the sweat used to climb

Your cologne and my conditioner blend into one skin sign

Two years since you left for the cities and I never moved from here

Pre-Chorus

Can a place remember what it felt like in your arms?

Does this island know how we danced until the stars went dark?

Chorus

Skin remembers everything, long after you are gone

Every beat of my heart still carries the rhythm that was ours alone

I'll keep on moving till I find my own two feet again

But right now, skin remembers what it felt like to be with you then

Verse 2

Now I dance with strangers under stars we used to share

Their hands brush mine but nothing turns me back there

The sun rises over hills that hold every single sway

I wish you could know how the island never lets go of what we say

Pre-Chorus

Can a place remember what it felt like in your arms?

Does this island know how we danced until the stars went dark?

Chorus

Skin remembers everything, long after you are gone

Every beat of my heart still carries the rhythm that was ours alone

I'll keep on moving till I find my own two feet again

But right now, skin remembers what it felt like to be with you then

Bridge

Not your name or where we went but how the whole room leaned in

Maybe this island's been holding onto something that wasn't mine

Maybe the best love isn't something that stays but something that remains

A beat in my chest that keeps on moving, even when you're gone and I remain

Chorus

Skin remembers everything, long after you are gone

Every beat of my heart still carries the rhythm that was ours alone

I'll keep on moving till I find my own two feet again

But right now, skin remembers what it felt like to be with you then
