[Verse 1]
She was always chasing wildfires,
Looking for a love that burned bright,
Falling for the sparks and the thunder,
For the heat that filled the night.
Every flame promised forever,
Every kiss felt heaven-sent,
But the ashes told the story
Of another love that's come and went.
[Pre-Chorus]
She thought love was something reckless,
Something fierce enough to see,
Never noticing the steady heart
Waiting patiently.
[Chorus]
I spent my whole life chasing fire,
Watching sparks light up the sky,
But every flame I ever followed
Left another dream behind.
All along you were the snowfall,
Making ordinary magical,
The gentle rain that healed my hurting,
The steady place my heart could go.
I was searching for forever
In a flame that couldn't last,
Never knowing I had found it
In your quiet love at last.
[Verse 2]
Whenever another fire burned out,
You were there to help me stand,
Never saying, "I told you so,"
Just reaching out your hand.
You let me cry, you let me heal,
You never tried to change my soul,
You only held me through the storms
Until I found myself whole.
[Pre-Chorus]
Like a soft and gentle rainfall
After years of drought and pain,
You brought life back to the places
Others left in vain.
[Chorus]
I spent my whole life chasing fire,
Watching sparks light up the sky,
But every flame I ever followed
Left another dream behind.
All along you were the snowfall,
Making ordinary magical,
The gentle rain that healed my hurting,
The steady place my heart could go.
I was searching for forever
In a flame that couldn't last,
Never knowing I had found it
In your quiet love at last.
[Verse 3]
Now I see what I was missing,
Why those fires could never stay,
They always needed something from me,
Always faded away.
But your love never demanded,
Never begged for constant proof,
It lived inside the little moments,
Growing stronger with the truth.
[Pre-Chorus]
And one winter morning I realized
What my heart had always known,
The love I'd spent my life searching for
Had been waiting all along.
[Final Chorus]
I spent my whole life chasing fire,
Watching sparks light up the sky,
But every flame I ever followed
Left another dream behind.
All along you were the snowfall,
Making ordinary magical,
The gentle rain that healed my hurting,
The steady place my heart could go.
I was searching for forever
In a flame that couldn't last,
Never knowing I had found it
In your quiet love at last.
[Outro]
I thought love would be a wildfire,
Something blazing through the dark,
But love was in the falling snow,
Quietly changing my heart.
Not a flame that leaves behind
Nothing but smoke and memory,
But a soft and steady love
That turns the world to beauty.
And now I know forever
Was never in the fire's glow—
It was waiting in your arms,
Like a gentle falling snow.
