Body On Fire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Break the hands on every clock
So we can take our time
Make the most, live every minute
It's all so that I can make you mine
Tell your friends you're staying in tonight
Can't get you out of my head
Take it slow so we can do this right
If that's what you want, then I'll beg
Don't you know we can do everything?
If you feel it too, then girl don’t be ashamed
Don't you know you can do everything
If you just let me lay you down?
Cold nights, closed eyes
Feel your body light a fire in mine
Turn off the lights and I won’t lie
I’ve got sinning on my mind
Same scene, repeats
Our thoughts tangled underneath these sheets
Turn out the lights and I won’t lie
I’ve got sinning on my mind
Morning comes and it’s usually over
But you are by my side
Not sure if it gets any closer
For once it feels right
Don't you know we can do everything?
If you feel it too, then girl don’t be ashamed
Don't you know you can do everything
If you just let me lay you down?
Cold nights, closed eyes
Feel your body light a fire in mine
Turn off the lights and I won’t lie
I’ve got sinning on my mind
Same scene, repeats
Our thoughts tangled underneath these sheets
Turn out the lights and I won’t lie
I never saw myself catching these feelings
I never asked for help or needed the healing
I can’t choose the cards that I’m dealt
I can’t stop the way that this felt
It keeps coming around and round
And round and back again
I never saw myself catching these feelings
I never asked for help or needed the healing
I can’t choose the cards that I’m dealt
I can’t stop the way that I felt
It keeps coming around and round
And round and back again, oh
Cold nights, closed eyes
Feel your body light a fire in mine
Turn off the lights and I won’t lie
I’ve got sinning on my mind
Same scene, repeats
Our thoughts tangled underneath these sheets
Turn out the lights and I won’t lie
I’ve got sinning on my mind
