Wild Fire (Mahogany Sessions)
Chasing down a wild fire
Are you trying to make some cold liar out of me?
You wanna get high?
You can overcome those desires before you come to me
I think your mama's kinda sad
Think your papa's kinda mean
I could take it all away
You can stop playing it out on me
Me, yeah
She keeps a pen behind her ear
Because she's got something she really, really needs to say
She puts it in a notepad
Are you gonna write a book someday?
Of course, the only part that I want to read
Is about her time spent with me
Wouldn't you die to know how you're seen?
Are you getting away with who you're trying to be?
Trying, trying to be
Of course, there are things upon the Earth
That we must really try to defend
A lonely beast or a kind heart
Something weak and on trend
I did it all for her for free
I need nothing back for me
There no sweeter deed may be
Than to love something enough to want to help it get free
Free, yeah
Is there something on her mind?
Something she needs to get by?
Do you cry sometimes?
Do you cry sometimes?
You always say that you love me most
When I do not know that I'm being seen
Maybe someday when God takes me away
I'll understand what that means
I just know that your mama's kinda sad
I know your papa's kinda mean
I can take it all away
You can stop playing it out on me
Me, yeah
Is there something on your mind?
Something you need to get by?
Do you cry sometimes?
Do you cry sometimes?
Are you trying to make some cold liar out of me?
You wanna get high?
You can overcome those desires before you come to me
I think your mama's kinda sad
Think your papa's kinda mean
I could take it all away
You can stop playing it out on me
Me, yeah
She keeps a pen behind her ear
Because she's got something she really, really needs to say
She puts it in a notepad
Are you gonna write a book someday?
Of course, the only part that I want to read
Is about her time spent with me
Wouldn't you die to know how you're seen?
Are you getting away with who you're trying to be?
Trying, trying to be
Of course, there are things upon the Earth
That we must really try to defend
A lonely beast or a kind heart
Something weak and on trend

Do you cry sometimes?

You can stop playing it out on me
Me, yeah
Is there something on your mind?
Something you need to get by?
Do you cry sometimes?
Do you cry sometimes?
