First Light lyrics

On your skinOn mineWe sway into the sunrise

You came through in that sundressSlowSalt on your shouldersGold in your glowBare feet dancing in the sandEyes closedYou pull me closer like you already know

Every move you makePulls me to your waveYou laughI hesitateThen you take my hand and say

First lightYou and IBody on bodyTime flying byRight nowDon't thinkJust rideWe're movingWe're movingSo rightFirst lightSkin on fireYou and me higherHigherRight nowDon't thinkJust rideWe're movingWe're movingFirst light

Sweat on your foreheadWarm on my chestYou spin around meRhythm-possessedYou kiss my shoulder just to see me reactI lose my balanceYou pull me right back

Every look you giveTeaches me to liveYou lean in and sayLet the night just fade away

First lightYou and IBody on bodyTime flying byRight nowDon't thinkJust rideWe're movingWe're movingSo rightFirst lightSkin on fireYou and me higherHigherRight nowDon't thinkJust rideWe're movingWe're movingFirst light

Stay till the sun climbs all the way upStay till our hearts both can't get enoughYou say foreverI say start with tonightTwo hearts dancing in this early light

First lightYou and IBody on bodyTime flying byRight nowDon't thinkJust rideWe're movingWe're movingSo rightFirst lightSkin on fireYou and me higherHigherRight nowDon't thinkJust rideWe're movingWe're movingFirst light

Shadow and sunshine on your faceWe slow our stepsBut not our flameFirst lightYou whisper my name
