Slow Burn Lyrics by Bug Hunter

Torn Between a Couple

2017

[Verse 1]
Cue the music, let it build
The melancholy soundtrack of a summer indie film
I'm the quirky, unconventional leading guy
I say stupid garbage no ones ever said In their real life
Like "I've been taking bigger breaths lately
'Cause you told me not to hold it waiting for you to commit"

[Chorus]
Slow burn, I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
Slow burn, my heart goes pitter patter, pitter patter; batter up, I'm up next
Slow burn, slow burn 'cause it's the only light I know
So while there's hope for you and me, I burn real slow

[Verse 2]
So let's stay home tonight my love
I don't like crowded rooms or the silly folk that fill them up
My introversion's not a charming trait
My wit's not good for much but thinking up useless stuff to say
Like "My hopes are sleeping quietly in bed
'Cause you told me not to get them up dreaming one day you'd commit!"

[Chorus]
Slow burn, I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
Slow burn, my heart goes pitter patter, pitter patter; batter up, I'm up next
Slow burn, slow burn, 'cause it’s the only light I know
While there's hope for you and me, I burn real slow

[Bridge]
I didn't know better, so I didn't get better
I held onto hope when its best I forget her
I didn't know better, so I didn't get better
Love has a spirit and I followed the letter
I didn't know better, so I didn't get better
I've loved her so long and I can't quite remember
That all of my eggs in her basket won't hatch
But I've counted each one and now I want 'em all back!

[Chorus]
Slow burn, I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
Slow burn, my heart goes pitter patter, pitter patter; batter up, I'm up next
Slow burn, slow burn, 'cause it's the only lie I know
So while there's hope for you and me, yeah I burn real slow
