Intro
Cold tap running, blinds half-drawn Here comes the morning, here comes the morning
Verse 1
Six a.m., let the gray rinse off of me Cold splash, clear head, color coming up easy No armor on, just water and a window full of gold Bare-faced and twenty, twenty going on bold
Pre-chorus
The light hits different when you stop holding your breath Drop the heavy, keep the glow, leave the rest
Chorus
Skin like sunlight, head to the open sky Nothing to cover up, nothing to hide Lit from the inside, weightless and warm Skin like sunlight, brand-new in the morning
Post-chorus
Sun-light, sun-light, oh-oh Sun-light, sun-light, oh-oh Skin like sunlight, here we go Sun-light, sun-light
Verse 2
Out the door with the whole day on my side Used to make myself small, now I take up the light No filter on the feeling, no second-guess in my step Best I ever felt, and I haven't even left yet
Pre-chorus
The light hits different when you stop holding your breath Drop the heavy, keep the glow, leave the rest
Chorus
Skin like sunlight, head to the open sky Nothing to cover up, nothing to hide Lit from the inside, weightless and warm Skin like sunlight, brand-new in the morning
Post-chorus
Sun-light, sun-light, oh-oh Sun-light, sun-light, oh-oh Skin like sunlight, here we go Sun-light, sun-light
Verse 3
Kitchen bright, kettle low, we move how we please Don't dim it for nobody, baby, let 'em see Faces to the window like we got all day to be Light as the morning, and the morning is free
Bridge
I gave too many mornings to the mirror and the doubt (the doubt) Counting little nothings I would cover up and crowd out Then the day came in clean and it called my own name Same skin, new sun, I am not hiding it again Drop the heavy, keep the glow
Verse 4
New day, same face, but I carry it light now Don't gotta prove it, don't gotta know how Just clean and awake and okay on my own Sunlight finds my skin and I am finally home
Pre-chorus
The light hits different when you stop holding your breath Drop the heavy, keep the glow, leave the rest
Chorus
Skin like sunlight, head to the open sky Nothing to cover up, nothing to hide Lit from the inside, weightless and warm Skin like sunlight, brand-new in the morning
Verse 5
Cold tap running, blinds wide open now Same me, new light, and I let it in somehow
Outro
Sun-light, sun-light, oh-oh Skin like sunlight, brand-new in the morning
Inside the recording
Cold tap running, blinds half-drawn Here comes the morning, here comes the morning
The light hits different when you stop holding your breath Drop the heavy, keep the glow, leave the rest
Sun-light, sun-light, oh-oh Skin like sunlight, brand-new in the morning
