Too Hot to Touch

You swear that you're cold, but you're burning me up
You're almost too hot to touch

Life in the lost and found
Been breaking me down
And bleeding me, bleeding me dry
Leaving the hard remains
Of arteries drained
And veins so, my veins so deprived

It's so hard to leave your heart on your sleeve
When your lungs need to feel the beat to breathe
But hey, what's the need? I've been holding my breath for weeks

You swear that you're cold, but you're burning me up
You're almost too hot to touch
But baby, don't believe that could ever stop me cold, no

I remember hope before
It fell to the floor
I forgot what I'd gotten it for
Until a sideways smile
Revived me, and I
Decided that I wanted more

I've tossed many quarters in wishing well waters
Certainly enough to have bought your love by now
Still, if I had a million more, I'd watch them all drown
Woah

You swear that you're cold, but you're burning me up
You're almost too hot to touch
But baby, don't believe that could ever stop me cold, no
You never ever cease to amaze me
When you set my blood ablaze
By flittering those pretty little windows to your soul
They inspire the tale of a fire deep in you
And I've got good reason to believe it could be true

You keep your composure and me on my toes
Our hearts at a distance and pulling me close
You keep your composure and me on my toes
Our hearts at a distance and pulling me close
You keep your composure and me on my toes
Our hearts at a distance and pulling me close
You're pulling me, pulling me close

You swear that you're cold, but you're burning me up
You're almost too hot to touch
But baby, don't believe that could ever stop me cold, no
You never ever cease to amaze me
When you set my blood ablaze
By flittering those pretty little windows to your soul
They inspire the tale of a fire deep in you, oh
They inspire the tale of a fire deep in you
They inspire the tale of a fire deep in you
And I've got good reason to believe it could be true

It could be true
And I think it's true
There's a fire in you
A fire in you
I see a fire in you
