Skin to Skin

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Your coat on the chair, your keys by the door You ask if I’m tired, I say not anymore The kettle goes quiet, the whole room slows down You reach for my hand, and the day falls away [Pre-Chorus] No need to tell me what you came here for I know that look from the other side of the door [Chorus] Skin to skin, let the whole world wait Your hand in mine and the hour turns late Nothing to prove, nowhere to be Just your breath keeping time next to me Skin to skin, close enough to know The words we save when we’re moving slow Stay right here, let the night fold in I find my way back, skin to skin [Verse 2] The window is silver with rain from the street You trace little circles along my sleeve I laugh when you stumble trying to say All the small things you’ve been holding all day [Pre-Chorus] No need to promise what tomorrow brings Tonight is simple, and simple means everything [Chorus] Skin to skin, let the whole world wait Your hand in mine and the hour turns late Nothing to prove, nowhere to be Just your breath keeping time next to me Skin to skin, close enough to know The words we save when we’re moving slow Stay right here, let the night fold in I find my way back, skin to skin [Bridge] When the morning puts the blue back in the room When the kettle starts and the day comes through I’ll remember how the quiet felt Your shoulder near, no one else [Final Chorus] Skin to skin, let the whole world wait Your hand in mine and the hour turns late Nothing to prove, nowhere to be Just your breath keeping time next to me Skin to skin, close enough to know The words we save when we’re moving slow Stay right here, let the night fold in I find my way back, skin to skin [Outro] Stay right here, let the night fold in I find my way back, skin to skin
