July On Your Skin

[Verse 1]
Sunburn on your shoulder
Salt on your lips
We’re laughing at nothing
Traffic in the distance
Your hair up
Undone
Melted cherry stain
You say you hate this weather
But you keep me in the flame
[Chorus]
Summer got us tangled in a slow rush
Hands on your waist
I don’t say much
Just breathe
Just stay right here
R&B love in the heat of the year
Sweat on your neck
I lean closer
July on your skin
It’s taking me over
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna get right
Heavy little hearts in the low light
[Verse 2]
Cheap wine
Paper cup
Knees touch on the curb
You’re tracing on my tattoo
Spelling every word
You say “don’t get attached”
Then hold me like you do
You’re talking like a warning
Your eyes already moved in too
[Chorus]
Summer got us tangled in a slow rush
Hands on your waist
I don’t say much
Just breathe
Just stay right here
R&B love in the heat of the year
Sweat on your neck
I lean closer
July on your skin
It’s taking me over
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna get right
Heavy little hearts in the low light
[Bridge]
We could cool this down
Or we could let it burn
Kiss me on the way out
Promise you’ll return
Ash on your cigarette
Falling where we sit
Say it doesn’t mean much
But we both know it did (oh)
[Chorus]
Summer got us tangled in a slow rush
Hands on your waist
I don’t say much
Just breathe
Just stay right here
R&B love in the heat of the year
Sweat on your neck
I lean closer
July on your skin
It’s taking me over
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna get right
Heavy little hearts in the low light

Smoky R&B over dusty, lo-fi drums; warm sidechain bass and woozy keys. Male vocals, close-mic and intimate, with breathy harmonies in the hook. Verses stay laid-back and conversational, chorus blooms with layered stacks and a lifted top line. Subtle vinyl crackle and filtered sweeps deepen the late-night, summer heat vibe., r&b, low
