Heat Rises

(album: Lifted - 2014)

Like a mirage in the desert on some old California road
Like it's a hundred and twenty degrees
Lightning strikes and the thunder rolls
Something's bout to happen, girl, I've got a map
And your body's like a wonderland, I want to drive
Keep pouring on the gas and striking a match
Til I see the white smoke in your eyes

Sparks gonna fly from the ambers
Of these velvet sheets tonight
The flame's gonna dance from you and me
Like when fire and wind collide
Get lost in the sweet red wine
And no one find us, tonight heat rises
Kisses drip like wax from the candle
Too hot to handle, tonight heat rises
Spreading fast, catching wild
Burning on, take a flight, you and I
Tonight heat rises, heat rises

Lipstick on the pillow, fog sweating down the window pane
Something in your voice when you say my name
Yeah it melts the pain
On the walls of my heart and beg my pardon
If you finish what you started and light up the dark
With the roll of the flip baby, hit me again babe
Let's take it a little too far

Sparks gonna fly from the ambers
Of these velvet sheets tonight
The flame's gonna dance from you and me
Like when fire and wind collide
Get lost in the sweet red wine
And no one find us, tonight heat rises
Kisses drip like wax from the candle
Too hot to handle, tonight heat rises
Spreading fast, catching wild
Burning on, take a flight, you and I
Tonight heat rises, heat rises

Heat rises, heat rises

Keep pouring on the gas and striking a match
Til I see the white smoke in your eyes, girl

Sparks gonna fly from the ambers
Of these velvet sheets tonight
The flame's gonna dance from you and me
Like when fire and wind collide
Get lost in the sweet red wine
And no one find us, tonight heat rises
Kisses drip like wax from the candle
Too hot to handle, tonight heat rises
Spreading fast, catching wild
Burning on, take a flight, you and I
Tonight heat rises, heat rises
