She Burns

She is a little explosion of hope
Never turns the lights down low
She can go there if you want to though
There are no markings on her country roads
No sign to show the way back home
But when you get there you won't want to go

I'd frozen over my desire
Covered up in virgin snow
When I stand beside her

She burns, yeah
She burns like petrol-soaked paper and fireworks
And I'm burning
I'm burning, I'm burning so deep that just breathing hurts
I'm melting, darling, and I can't let go

She likes to lay under the covers, oh
Pretend that everywhere's our home
Keeps me warm right to my very soul
We get so tangled up it's hard to know
What is hers and what's my own
Vines at the bottom of an olive grove

I'd frozen over my desires
Covered up in virgin snow
When I stand beside her

She burns, yeah
She burns like petrol-soaked paper and fireworks
And I'm burning
I'm burning, I'm burning so deep that just breathing hurts
I'm melting, darling, and I can't let go
I'm melting, darling, and can't let go
I'm melting, darling, and can't let go

Burning
Burning

I'd frozen over my desires
Covered up in virgin snow
When I stand beside her

She burns, yeah
She burns like petrol-soaked paper and fireworks
And I'm burning
I'm burning, I'm burning so deep that just breathing hurts
I'm melting, darling, and I can't let go
I'm melting, darling, and I can't let go
I'm melting, darling, and I can't let go
