I Wanna

(álbum: marginalia - 2022)

That month it struck me twice
We were a forest fire
Your blue lightning hit the cold hard ground again
Intoxicating eyes, chemical contact high
Lost in flames, I let myself forget that
When it comes to fires, they die first
Or someone puts 'em out

Oh, we couldn't burn forever
These embers were glowing just for now
But then the cold set in
And I started thinking

I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in
Love

Now in a crowded room
I dance with someone new
Wasted, graceless, laughing on a kitchen floor
The air is hot like June
I'm standing close to you
Sweeter, simpler than I've ever known before

But then it kicks in, if I risk it
You might just slip away
Could I survive the hurt, is it worth it
To know you feel the same?
Will it change things?
Am I crazy?
Or are you thinking

I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in
Love
I wanna feel the rush, I wanna feel the rush
I wanna feel the rush, I wanna feel it
And when you call my name, don't wanna be okay
I want it in my veins, I wanna need it
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in
(Love)

But then our last week, In the taxi
You kissed me and I cried
Felt like a kid in the backseat
Waving you goodbye
'Cause I could feel it, collapsing
We just weren't strong enough
And it was real
But I know now it wasn't
(Be in love, be in love, be in love, ahhh)
I wanna be in (Be in love, be in love, be in love, ahhh)
Oh I wanna, I wanna be in (Be in love, be in love, be in love, ahhh)

I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna feel it
And when you call my name, don't wanna be okay
I want it in my veins, I wanna need it
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love
I wanna be in love, I wanna be in love

Hmm
Now in a crowded room, I dance with someone new
The air is hot like June, I'm standing close to you
