for two years I burned
then I smoldered
now I simmer
over you
now I crave something calmer
eternity in a slow song
my heart is swimming in a lake
learning not to ache for desire
love is a candle tipped in trip wire
only fools let it burn
only a foolish witch
would tie herself to the pyre
lovers you can keep em
lovers it may seem like I need em but I don't need em
love is a shade of lemon lime
not always bitter, but bitter most of the time
for all these years in which I've burned
I now release the dove for which I've yearned
don't you come back to me
kindly refrain
I'm kicking up my heels
clicking them three times
hoping I can stay
my heart is swimming in a lake
learning not to ache for desire
Love is a candle tipped in trip wire
only fools let it burn
only a foolish witch
would tie herself to the pyre
lovers you can keep em
lovers I may seem like I need em but I don't need em
love is a shade of lemon lime
not always bitter, but bitter most of the time
