Slow Fire 4

Verse

First time you touched me I was burning like an ember

Couldn't cool myself down, couldn't let it settle

Fingers through my hair and a look that said surrender

I caught fire in the first three seconds

Now your name's on my skin like a slow tattoo

Every touch leaves marks I don't want to lose

I used to run from this, now I'm chasing you

You're the only flame that I've never tried to cool down, too

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how it happens so fast, so clean

Why does every second with you feel like a scene from a movie

Am I losing control or am I finally free

I don't need an answer just hold onto me

Chorus

You got that slow fire burning down my spine

Every touch ignites and I don't want it to end this time

Slow fire, low flame, melting into you tonight

This is the only kind of trouble that I'd fight

Verse

Six weeks in, still catching myself staring

Your laugh on the phone at three am just like a spark flare

Every room we walk through turns gold when you're near

I used to run from love but now it's chasing me here

You said forever sounds crazy but I'm not afraid

Never been this kind of burning that's worth staying in

Used to believe in leaving before things got made

Now I'm learning slow fire never burns out, never fades

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how it happens so fast, so clean

Why does every second with you feel like a scene from a movie

Am I losing control or am I finally free

I don't need an answer just hold onto me

Chorus

You got that slow fire burning down my spine

Every touch ignites and I don't want it to end this time

Slow fire, low flame, melting into you tonight

This is the only kind of trouble that I'd fight

Bridge

Someday someone's gonna ask me how this started

I'll tell them slow like a late train catching in my heart

No rushing love when it burns this deep

Some fires take all summer to come alive, some sleep

Chorus

You got that slow fire burning down my spine

Every touch ignites and I don't want it to end this time

Slow fire, low flame, melting into you tonight

This is the only kind of trouble that I'd fight
