Skin
Mom Dad and the Kids Lyrics

The river was pink
The river appeared with a pinkish color

It winded down
The river flowed down in a winding pattern

The valley of red and green
The valley was characterized by a mix of red and green colors

Where we walked you and me
The artist and their loved one previously walked in this valley together

The air was thin
The atmosphere had low pressure and oxygen levels

Purple flowers laced our dream
The singer and their loved one imagined purple flowers surrounding them

I felt dizzy from the height
The high altitude made the singer feel dizzy

As I held on to you so tight
The artist held on tightly to their loved one for support

In a shimmer in a dance
The moment had a shining and moving effect

In a slow paced romance
The relationship between the artist and their loved one was a gradual and passionate one

Waking up skin to skin
The two woke up close and intimately

To fall back in dreams again
Going back to sleep, they enter another dreamy state

You follow my eyes to the horizon
The singer's loved one followed their gaze towards the horizon

I follow your breath until my death
The singer pledged to follow their loved one's breath until the end of their life

While the powdery light created delusions
The hazy light caused illusions or false beliefs

Of our grandeur in our heads
They had an inflated view of themselves in their minds

But thousands of lovers walked before us
Many other couples have walked this path before they did

They felt as new and pure and deaf and sore as us
Like the singer and their loved one, those before them felt similar emotions

We sang slowly and soft
The couple sang a slow and gentle tune

As our music was being born
Their song was being created in that moment

Tones were drowning from our muted lips
Their voices were barely audible and their words were fading away

Lightning crashing with each touch and kiss
Their intimate moments were electrifying and intense

The desert was blue
The desert looked blue to the singer and their loved one

We killed each doubt of us two
They eliminated all doubts and insecurities from their relationship

We screamed for rivers to fill our beds
They passionately wanted love to flood their lives

To drown us with love until the end
The singer and their loved one wanted to be completely engulfed with love forever

But the wind steered me home
The elements of nature caused the singer to return home

I couldn't stay forever more
The artist had to leave eventually

We had scattered our seeds along the coast
They left their mark or legacy behind during their journey

Up over mountain streams and roads
They had experienced the highs and lows of their adventure multiple times

I followed your eyes to the horizon
The singer followed their loved one's gaze once again

I left my breath as a mist over your head
The artist left a lasting imprint on their loved one

While the world poured out an ocean between us
The distance between them grew immensely

You wrote my name with your blood and sweat
Their loved one symbolically gave their all for the artist

I can still feel your skin as we woke up
The singer can distinctly remember their intimacy the previous morning

Under the sun
The sun was shining on them

Under the sky
The sky covered them

Under your dusty heavy eyes
Their loved one was staring at them with tired eyes
