Sand On My Sleeve

[Verse 1]
You came in slow
Like tide on Gorée
Palm oil shine
On your wrist in the heat
You laughed at my fear
Like it was small
And somehow you knew
How to hold it all

[Pre-Chorus]
When my chest got loud
You stayed near
One look from you
And the storm went clear
No big speech
Just your hand in mine
Like a road sign glowing
In the sand at night

[Chorus]
You’re my special one
My special one
You pull me home
You pull me home
You’re my special one
My special one
When the whole world shakes
You don’t let go (don’t let go)

[Verse 2]
We crossed that market
With the fish and gold
You picked the ripe mango
I picked the cold
Rain hit the tin roof
Hard and bright
You made that day
Feel like a light

[Pre-Chorus]
When my chest got loud
You stayed near
One look from you
And the storm went clear
No big speech
Just your hand in mine
Like a road sign glowing
In the sand at night

[Chorus]
You’re my special one
My special one
You pull me home
You pull me home
You’re my special one
My special one
When the whole world shakes
You don’t let go (don’t let go)

[Bridge]
If I lose my way
Call my name
I’ll find your shadow
In the morning flame
Little drum, big heart
That’s your part
You make a hard life
Feel less hard

[Final Chorus]
You’re my special one
My special one
You pull me home
You pull me home
You’re my special one
My special one
When the whole world shakes
You don’t let go (don’t let go)
You’re my special one
My special one
Stay right here
Stay right here (stay right here)
