[Verse 1]
I struck the match, watched it burn too bright,
Lit up my world, but it never felt right.
Smoke in my lungs, ash in my veins,
Every love I found just stoked the flames.
[Prechorus]
I kept on dancin' in the heat of the glow,
Didn’t care where it led, didn’t wanna know.
[Chorus]
I was playin' with fire, burnin' it down,
Chasin' the sparks all over town.
But then you came, and girl, you poured me out,
You’re the calm to the blaze, no doubt, no doubt.
I was playin' with fire, till you put it out.
[Verse 2]
Her words were kerosene, her touch was a fuse,
I’d light it up, knowing I’d always lose.
Jumped from one flame to the next wildfire,
Each one higher, each one a liar.
[Prechorus]
But your heart’s a rainstorm, gentle and true,
And I swear, darlin’, it’s floodin' my view.
[Chorus]
I was playin' with fire, burnin' it down,
Chasin' the sparks all over town.
But then you came, and girl, you poured me out,
You’re the calm to the blaze, no doubt, no doubt.
I was playin' with fire, till you put it out.
