Salt on My Hands

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I came home with dust on my shoes And your name in my mouth The whole road felt too long Till I saw your light on You looked up and smiled Like you knew what I needed One small touch from your hand And my heart started breathing [Pre-Chorus] Tell me stay, tell me close Don’t let the night take hold I’ve been heavy for days But you make it feel light [Chorus] Hold me near Hold me near Let the hurt fall down Let it disappear Hold me near Hold me near In your arms I remember How to live right here [Verse 2] There’s salt on my hands From the sea and the waiting We talk in the dark But the room keeps us sacred Your voice in my ear Turns the fear into water I was lost for a while Now I’m walking beside you [Pre-Chorus] Tell me stay, tell me close Don’t let the night take hold I’ve been heavy for days But you make it feel light [Chorus] Hold me near Hold me near Let the hurt fall down Let it disappear Hold me near Hold me near In your arms I remember How to live right here [Bridge] If the world gets loud We can let it pass I don’t need forever Just your steady hand And when morning comes With the sun on the tile We’ll begin again One small breath at a time [Final Chorus] Hold me near Hold me near Let the hurt fall down Let it disappear Hold me near Hold me near In your arms I remember How to live right here Hold me near Hold me near You make the whole sky open When you’re near, I’m here
