It started innocent enough, And stirred a storm, but tame, Stuck the landing; the start, a little rough And the storm became a hurricane, The candles couldn't stand, Nor could our lies, The deception in our eyes, And you became mine, At least for tonight. Something within my chest, Pulled harder with every breath, And I want you more than life itself, If this is sin, if this is death, then I accept, And I'm off to Hell. If this is what it is to burn, Then ignite me, The flame is what we yearn, Unrequitedly, Our flames dancing 'round the room, Like embers burn true, Ashes became of me, The moment I entered you. Pulling harder now, With every step it grew, The magnetism within myself, And my compass points to you. You wanting me like you couldn't contain, Such passion in your every move, Like a desert that hasn't seen rain, Almost begging, never too soon. If this is what it is to burn, Then ignite me, The flame is what we yearn, Unrequitedly, Our flames dancing 'round the room, Like embers burn true, Ashes became of me, The moment I entered you. We dropped our apprehensions, Perhaps, a little too soon. But we stopped our inner tensions, A flame in full bloom. I couldn't remember, What it feels like to burn, The sweetest surrender, To ever overturn. If this is what it is to burn, Then ignite me, The flame is what we yearn, Unrequitedly, Our flames dancing 'round the room, Like embers burn true, Ashes became of me, The moment I entered you.
