Slow Burn on the Stove

[Verse 1] You cut limes I watch your hands Steam on the glass Salt on your lips [Chorus] It’s a slow burn on the stove And we’re both getting closer You say “taste this” on my mouth I can’t tell the heat from your shoulder Slow burn on the stove You lean in like you know If we turn the flame down lower We’ll never make it to the table (mm) [Verse 2] Oil pops You never flinch Apron string Wrapped in my fist [Chorus] It’s a slow burn on the stove And we’re both getting closer You say “taste this” on my mouth I can’t tell the heat from your shoulder Slow burn on the stove You whisper, “let it go” If we turn the flame down lower We’ll never make it to the table (yeah)
