Salt and Strings

[Intro]
[Verse]
Green coconut in my hand
Shadows crawling on the sand
Golden light across the floor
I couldn't ask for any more
Sugar on the rim of glass
Watching all the hours pass
[Pre-Chorus]
The ice begins to melt away
Like the ending of the day
I'm waiting for a ghost to stay
In this quiet cabaret
[Chorus]
Your salt-kissed skin
Where do I begin?
The samba hums
Until the morning comes
We’re dancing slow
With nowhere left to go
[Post-Chorus]
Just you and me
Beside the sea
Under the canopy
[Verse]
Calloused fingers on the fret
A melody I can't forget
You played until the stars aligned
Leaving every care behind
Muted trumpet in the breeze
Whispering through palm tree leaves
[Pre-Chorus]
The ice begins to melt away
Like the ending of the day
I'm waiting for a ghost to stay
In this quiet cabaret
[Chorus]
Your salt-kissed skin
Where do I begin?
The samba hums
Until the morning comes
We’re dancing slow
With nowhere left to go
[Bridge]
The rooftop is empty now
I remember every vow
The city lights begin to glow
In the valley far below
I reach for what I used to know
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Your salt-kissed skin
Where do I begin?
The samba hums
Until the morning comes
We’re dancing slow
With nowhere left to go
[Post-Chorus]
Just you and me
Beside the sea
Under the canopy
[Outro]
