Whisper on My Skin - Jamie Lin Wilson

It’s that picture of you

Lookin' up at me

Watchin' all my moves

I wonder what it is you see

It’s that smile on your face

It lifts me up off the ground

But Darlin', never be afraid

To have to let somebody down

I’d like to think that there is nothin' in the world

Like the light through the blinds on a brown-eyed laughin' girl

Like the callus on the hands of an honest lovin' man

Like a whisper on the skin in the darkness now and then

In the darkness I stand

Like a stature, all alone

Without this tiny weddin' band

I’d be a heart, and blood and bones

I’d be a torn and worn-out wishful woman

Tied to the tracks

And I have been down in that place

I ain’t ever goin' back

I’d like to think that there is nothin' in the world

Like the night fallin' in on a sweet and sleepin' girl

Like the callus on the hands of an honest lovin' man

Like the whisper on my skin in the darkness now and then

It’s that picture of you

Lookin' up at me

Watchin' all my moves

I wonder what it is you see

It’s that fire burnin' slow

It’s the soft south-Texas wind

It’s the sweet smell of smoke

Like a whisper on my skin
