*Author's Note: A song about when the other person is afraid to fall in love with you and you can tell they are fighting their feelings because they are scared to get hurt.
〜VERSE 1〜
It's so easy for my feelings to catch
like a burst of emotions struck from a match
I knew it was only a matter of time
Before the flames spread over to my side
And I guess you were attracted to my light
In the beginning we burned so bright
But inside you always had a fear
So you never let yourself get too near
〜CHORUS〜
Cause baby when you touched me
it was like you touched fire
Got too close and pulled away
fighting your desires
But you couldn't go too far
cause without me it was cold
So you stayed just out of reach
so that I couldn't let you go
〜VERSE 2〜
Nowadays you're a firefighter
Terrified when someone pulls out a lighter
And as the smoke begins to fill your lungs
Fear takes over and you start to run
But once the wildfire started we couldn't stop it, no
Small sparks grew to a blazing inferno
But there's no such thing as an eternal flame
And so you burnt me out with your waiting game
〜CHORUS〜
Cause baby when you touched me
it was like you touched fire
Got too close and pulled away
fighting your desires
But you couldn't go too far
cause without me it was cold
So you stayed just out of reach
so that I couldn't let you go
〜BRIDGE〜
I would've given you everything
my warmth, a torch
even my firefly wings
But you were scared to get hurt, scared to get burnt
so you poured water over the earth
〜CHORUS〜
Cause baby when you touched me
it was like you touched fire
Got too close and pulled away
fighting your desires
In the end you let me go
And then you became so cold
Watching as you put us out
our embers falling to the ground
