She Burns

She is a little explosion of hope
Never turns the lights down low
She can go there if you want to though
There are no markings on her country roads
No signs that show the way back home
But when you get there, you won’t wanna go

I’ve frozen over my desires
Covered up in virgin snow
But when I stand beside her
She burns, yeah, she burns
Like petrol soaked paper and fireworks
And I’m burning, I’m burning
I’m burning so deep that just breathing hurts
I’m melting darling and I can’t let go

She likes to lay under the covers, oh
Pretend that everywhere’s our home
Keeps me warm right to my very soul
We get so tangled up, it’s hard to know
What is hers and what my own
Vines at the bottom of an olive grove

I’ve frozen over my desires

Covered up in virgin snow
But when I stand beside her
She burns, yeah she burns
Like petrol soaked paper and fireworks
And I’m burning, I’m burning
I’m burning so deep that just breathing hurts
I’m melting darling and I can’t let go
I’m melting darling and I can’t let go
I’m melting darling and I can’t let go

I’ve frozen over my desires
Covered up in virgin snow
But when I stand beside her
She burns, yeah, she burns
Like petrol soaked paper and fireworks
And I’m burning, yeah I’m burning
I’m burning so deep that just breathing hurts
I’m melting darling, I can’t let go
I’m melting darling, I can’t let go
I’m melting darling, I can’t let go
