Pictures on Your Skin Lyrics by Anouk

Together Alone

1997

[Verse 1]
There's gonna be a yellow moon tonight
Don't leave the light on
Beads of sweat running down my face
You can catch them with your tongue

[Pre-Chorus]
Colours run up and down your body
Every time you move
Every time, every time
Every time you move

[Chorus]
When I kiss the pictures on your skin
Make me shiver with the fire
Let me kiss the pictures on your skin

[Verse 2]
A pair of eyes that stare across the room
Watching you breathing
Magic signs scratched inside a heart
Filled with your name

[Pre-Chorus]
Colours run up and down your body
Every time you move
Every time, every time
Every time you move

[Chorus]
When I kiss the pictures on your skin
Make me shiver with the fire
Let me kiss the pictures on your skin

[Bridge]
The reds, the blues, the greens and the greys
All bleed their colours through a sweaty haze
And we slide like a serpent on silky sheets
And that twist and turn
Forever and ever and ever
Soft as a butterfly, stings like a bee
Soft as a butterfly, stings like a bee

[Pre-Chorus]
Colours run up and down your body
Every time you move
Every time, every time
Every time you move

[Chorus]
When I kiss the pictures on your skin
Make me shiver with the fire
Let me kiss the pictures on your skin
Let me kiss the pictures on your skin
Make me shiver with the fire, fire
Let me kiss the pictures on your skin
Let me love

[Outro]
There's gonna be a yellow moon tonight
Don't leave the light on
Beads of sweat running down my face
You can catch them with your tongue
All these colours that run up and down your body
Every time you move
Every time, every time
Every time you move
A pair of eyes that stare across the room
Watching you breathing
Magic signs scratched inside a heart
They're all filled with your name
Every time you move
Every time, every time
