New

I've known this body half as long as I've known my own
Dip, curve, and aperture
Something out of literature
I know the path of the veins that disappear under the sleeves of your cotton shirt
Rolled up for the temperature

The velvet at the small of your back and the crook of your elbow
These are places only I know
Places only you know

Every time is new to me
Every time is new to me
Strong hands, what you do to me
Every time is new

You make signs for yourself to take you back to your favourite parts
Turn left at the shoulder blade
Keep true
The shock at the nape of my neck at the touch of your finger
I always know it's you

You measure out the length of the silver scar behind my knee
These are places only you see
Places only I see

But every time is new to me
Every time is new to me
Keen eye, what you find in me
Every time is new

Half light in your hair, approaching rain is in the air
Chase the warmth along your skin before we let the day begin
Half light in your hair, rain is in the air tonight

Every time is new to me
Every time is new to me
Strong hands, what you do to me
Every time is new

Every time is new to me
Every time is new to me
Keen eye, what you find in me
Every time is new
