[Intro – Huge sliding sub-bass rises from silence; one distorted electric-guitar note bends slowly above a dry half-time pulse. An audible male inhale.] [Male Falsetto Hook – breathy high tenor, stretched and intimate, almost touching the microphone] Huuuh... huuuh... Huuuh... ha... Mm... yeah... Huuuh... huuuh... [Verse 1 – Breathy Male Tenor – low, calm and self-assured, delivered close to her ear] I walked in quiet, no need to flex You felt me first, I ain't touched you yet One look and that heat ran under your skin You held it still, but I saw it kick in I don't gotta roar, don't gotta prove You feel me coming before I move A man who knows takes his damn time Lets that wanting climb your spine [Pre-Chorus – Breathy Male Tenor – controlled and deliberate, a faint smile behind every word] You don't gotta say what you came here for Your eyes just pulled me across that floor One slow nod, yeah, I know we're good I read every yes in the way you move [Chorus – Breathy Male Tenor – smooth, commanding and intensely melodic without raising his voice] Let it burn, let it burn slow Tell me how far and that's where we'll go No big talk, we take our time Just your heat wrapped up in mine If you're the flame, I want the scar Honey, I can take it that far Give me that thing I can't unlearn Damn... you're worth the burn [Post-Chorus Hook – High Male Falsetto – airy and slightly cracked at the edges] Huuuh... huuuh... Huuuh... ha... Ohh... yeah... Worth the burn... [Instrumental Pull – Sub-bass slides downward; distorted electric guitar answers with one long blues bend. Leave darkness between every beat.] [Verse 2 – Breathy Male Tenor – lower, rougher and almost spoken, unhurried confidence] You keep it pretty, keep it off display But your body's already giving you away I see it in the curve of your back In the way your breath breaks when I get close like that You ain't gotta spell it, I know what's true This room ain't the only thing burning in you I got the patience to work that flame Give you what you need, then do it again [Pre-Chorus – Breathy Male Tenor – assured, teasing and rhythmically loose] We raise that temperature inch by inch Till you let that sweet composure slip You pull me closer, make it clear That look says, “Keep me right here” [Chorus – Breathy Male Tenor – smooth and seductive, deep bass answering every final word] Let it burn, let it burn slow Tell me how far and that's where we'll go No big talk, we take our time Just your heat wrapped up in mine If you're the flame, I want the scar Honey, I can take it that far Give me that thing I can't unlearn Damn... you're worth the burn [Electric Guitar Heat – Slow distorted blues bends over a massive sustained sub-bass. The drums disappear, then return with one deep kick.] [Male Falsetto Ad-libs – high, wordless and breath-heavy] Huuuuh... Ohh... Mm... yeah... Huuuh... ha... [Bridge – Breathy Male Tenor – dark, steady and hungry; sung with the calm of a man who has already made his choice] I didn't come for a passing thrill I came for the fire you choose to reveal That side of you you don't give away The one that wakes when you pull me your way You got a fire that carries your name Wicked little heaven wrapped up in flame If I burn, Honey, let me burn right Every move is yours and mine tonight [Breakdown – Male Whisper – extremely close, calm authority with a breath between every phrase] No roar... No rush... Come closer... Yeah... Just like that... [Final Chorus – Breathy Male Tenor – warm, powerful and completely controlled; falsetto shadows the final words] Let it burn, let it burn slow Tell me how far and that's where we'll go No big talk, no disguise Just that fire behind your eyes If you're the flame, I want the scar Honey, I can take it that far Only you got what I came here for Worth every damn burn and more [Final Falsetto Hook – breathy, high and dissolving into guitar reverb] Huuuh... huuuh... Huuuh... ha... Mm... yeah... Worth the burn... [Outro – Sub-bass holds one final low note while the electric guitar bends upward and disappears into his breath.]
