You burn me down

YOU BURN ME DOWN

Hey girls, don’t we all dream about that kind of fire?

That one man who still makes your whole heart rise higher?

Twenty years later and he still steals your breath,

One single kiss and you’re a beautiful mess

You think… damn boy

You burn me down

I wanna feel sparks flying across the room,

You’re sorting old paper on a Sunday afternoon,

I bought new lingerie hidden underneath my clothes,

Meanwhile you fell asleep with the remote control

And oh my God…

You burn me down

Just not exactly how I dreamed it now

I swear sometimes I could lose my mind,

‘Cause passion lives in my head twenty times a night.

I dream of wild kisses underneath a burning sunset sky,

You’re counting all the windows on the giant yachts passing by ■

We’re walking through the old town, candlelight and slow romance,

You disappear for burgers and come back with fries in both your hands ■

In my head it’s tangled sheets and shadows dancing in the dark…

You’re binge watching another Netflix show completely lost in plot ■

Boy seriously…

You burn me down

And somehow every crazy little difference that we found,

Still feels like love after all these years around

So maybe life ain’t Hollywood the way I thought somehow…

Maybe real love looks more like this right now

And honestly?

Maybe that’s the funny truth I finally figured out…

You still burn me down

And somehow every little thing you do,Keeps pulling me right back to you,

Maybe real love ain’t fireworks above…

Maybe it’s chaos mixed with trust

Maybe passion doesn’t always look the way I planned,

Maybe sometimes it’s your sleepy fingers reaching for my hand,

Maybe real love laughs more than it burns…

And somehow after all this time I still never learn ■

‘Cause every time I swear

“This man will drive me insane…”

You kiss my forehead half asleep

And I fall for you again
