Let It Burn – Della Aurora

Verse

Candlelight low, cedar smoke in the air

Your jacket on my chair, like you don't have a care

I saw you from the doorway, slow and sure

Stirring something in me I can't ignore

Pre-Chorus

So why fight the heat when it feels this right

Why keep my hands folded, holding tight

Something's rising, I can't pretend

Where does this end

Chorus

Let it burn, let it burn

Every slow and steady thing I learn

Your name like embers on my tongue

Let it burn till the night is done

I'm not running, I'm not scared

Let it burn like you're already there

Verse

Steam on the window, your voice through the wall

Calm as the water, I'm not scared to fall

You move like sunlight through amber glass

I stopped counting reasons to make this last

Pre-Chorus

So why fight the heat when it feels this right

Why keep my hands folded, holding tight

Something's rising, I can't pretend

Where does this end

Chorus

Let it burn, let it burn

Every slow and steady thing I learn

Your name like embers on my tongue

Let it burn till the night is done

I'm not running, I'm not scared

Let it burn like you're already there

Bridge

Maybe I've been careful my whole life

Counting doors before I opened wide

But you walked in like firelight through pine

And I'm done asking why it's mine

Chorus

Let it burn, let it burn

Every slow and steady thing I learn

Your name like embers on my tongue

Let it burn till the night is done

I'm not running, I'm not scared

Let it burn like you're already there

Let it burn, let it burn

Yeah, I feel it, and it's my turn
