Skin
DIJON Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're dressing like a Sunday morning
And your eyes look like little islands in the light
Hazel and light green
On white sheets

You're grinning like a Friday night
Yeah, you're smiling like you know what you like
I think I do know you well
I know you well

We come alive in the evening
With heat and wet skin
Ay, our bodies are tossed and turned
Tangled up in it

I come alive when you tease me
With heat and wet skin
Flesh and bone turned (ooh)
Flesh and bone turned
The weight of you close to me

You hold me like a prized possession
That's close
Our bodies unfurl like smoke
We twist and we curl like smoke

Fever out (out)
We're burning now
Holler out
We holler out 'til hollowed out

Oh, we come alive in the evening
With heat and wet skin
Ay, our bodies are tossed and turned
Tangled up in it

I come alive when you tease me
With heat and wet skin
Flesh and bone turned (ooh)
So much flesh and bone turned
The weight of you in the evening
Your wet skin
Ay, our bodies are tossed and turned
Tangled up in it
I come alive when you tease me
With heat and wet skin now, now, now

Your body close




Hey, your body close
The weight of you
