[Verse 1] *(breathy, intimate — FW-03)* The shower couldn't wash July off my skin Salt line on my wrist where my bracelet's been Sweaters in the windows, October's at the door But there's still sand in my sneakers on the floor [Chorus] *(bright bloom — FW-01)* Salt on skin, and the summer's still in me Tastes like July on the ocean breeze You can turn the page, I'm not ready to leave Salt on skin — I'm not letting go [Verse 2] Bought a bottle of sea-salt spray today So my hair keeps the beach, come what may My sister says, "It's fall — just let it be" I say, "The season's not done with me" [Chorus] Salt on skin, and the summer's still in me Tastes like July on the ocean breeze You can turn the page, I'm not ready to leave Salt on skin — I'm not letting go [Bridge] I tried to wash it off, tried to let it fade But maybe I've been getting this all wrong It's not me holding summer — summer's holding me So stay — I'm not washing you away [Final Chorus] *(I → we)* Salt on skin, and the summer's still in us Tastes like July on the ocean breeze You can turn the page, we're not ready to leave Salt on skin — we're not letting go Some summers don't end — they just move in
