The Flame

(album: Day Job, Pt. 1 - 2020)

I'm not one for taking chances
Risking everything
But when I first saw you I could feel
Every bone in my body
Begging me to leave
Said hello and your eyes met me
The warmest blue I've ever seen

And I will take your fire and rain
Nothing good came from something safe
We held on in a life of wait
I will never be the same
You're the match, baby, I'm the flame
I'm the flame

Years went by and the stardust
Didn't seem to fade
I still loved you from miles away
Every bright constellation
Was spelling out our names
You keep leaving, why can't you stay
The sweetest kiss I'll ever taste

And I will take your fire and rain
Nothing good came from something safe
We held on in a life of wait
I will never be the same
You're the match, baby, I'm the flame
I'm the flame

Television lights your back
You're beautiful in silhouette
The years to come will be our best

And I will take your fire and rain
Nothing good came from something safe
We held on in a life of wait
I will never be the same
You're the match, baby, I'm the flame
