slow burn
She didn't know what she wants, but I do
And somewhere through the glass I see
Me and you, not too fast, but nothing too slow
Don't want you slipping through my fingers
Like the love you used to know
And I would wait
Like the slow burn of the candle
Dressing our first date
And you could be
Everything I saw in my own childhood fantasies
I would say we were young, just you and me
Driving thirty hours a day to get where we needed to be
Don't say we were close but so far away
Cause I'm right here now and I'm here to stay
Said I'm right here now so don't push me away
Loving feels cynical, unpredictable
Every day is different but my love stays the same
You make me feel lyrical, might get difficult
To carry on with my day
If I can't find the words to say that
I would wait
Like the slow burn of the candle
Dressing our every date
And you could be
Everything I saw in my own childhood fantasies
I would say we were young, just you and me
Driving thirty hours a day to get where we needed to be
Don't say we were close but so far away
Cause I'm right here now and I'm here to stay
Said I'm right here now so don't push me away
It just feels kinda funny
Knowing you for so long
I just want all your loving
How could that be so wrong
How long will I yearn
If this is just a slow burn
I would say we were young, just you and me
Driving thirty hours a day to get where we needed to be
Don't say we were close but so far away
Cause I'm right here now and I'm here to stay
Said I'm right here now so don't push me away
Don't push me away
And somewhere through the glass I see
Me and you, not too fast, but nothing too slow
Don't want you slipping through my fingers
Like the love you used to know
And I would wait
Like the slow burn of the candle
Dressing our first date
And you could be
Everything I saw in my own childhood fantasies
I would say we were young, just you and me
Driving thirty hours a day to get where we needed to be
Don't say we were close but so far away
Cause I'm right here now and I'm here to stay
Said I'm right here now so don't push me away
Loving feels cynical, unpredictable
Every day is different but my love stays the same
You make me feel lyrical, might get difficult
To carry on with my day
If I can't find the words to say that
I would wait
Like the slow burn of the candle
Dressing our every date
And you could be
Everything I saw in my own childhood fantasies
I would say we were young, just you and me
Driving thirty hours a day to get where we needed to be
Don't say we were close but so far away
Cause I'm right here now and I'm here to stay
Said I'm right here now so don't push me away
It just feels kinda funny
Knowing you for so long
I just want all your loving
How could that be so wrong
How long will I yearn
If this is just a slow burn
I would say we were young, just you and me
Driving thirty hours a day to get where we needed to be
Don't say we were close but so far away
Cause I'm right here now and I'm here to stay
Said I'm right here now so don't push me away
Don't push me away
