Skin to my skin
Touching my soul and my heart again
Mysterious passion over misery
Leaving me bold in sweet symphony
yesterday is gone lost in the past
Try to hang on but its fading fast
I'm covered in love covered in you
I love the feeling that your giving me
Its making me better I can't disagree
Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
When u shine on me
Here comes the sun
Skin to my skin
Touching my soul and my heart again
Mysterious passion over misery
Leaving me bold in sweet symphony
yesterday is gone lost in the past
Try to hang on but its fading fast
I'm covered in love covered in you

I love the feeling that your giving me
Its making me better I can't disagree
Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
When u shine on me

When I was a club promoter in London me and my team would leave the club around 6.30am on a Sunday morning, put the roof down on my convertible and this would always be on pirate radio flashback 99.3fm and everyone in the car would go mental car dancing through the streets of London. All Time Classic track - so positive and uplifting!!!! ❤❤❤❤
