Closer than Fire

We don't have to move too fast
There's a feeling here I wanna last
Every breath you take gets closer
Every second pulls me in

I've felt heat, I've felt desire
I've been burned by open fire
But the way you're standing near me
Feels like something deeper than that

You don't rush, you don't run
You just stay, and I come undone

This isn't heat that fades with time
This is something crossing lines

You're closer than fire
You don't burn, you stay
You don't rush the moment
You just take me away
I've felt flames, I've felt desire
But nothing pulls me higher
Than the way you're holding me
Closer than fire

Every word you don't explain
Hits me deeper than your name
There's a truth inside the silence
That I don't wanna lose

We don't need the lights to see
What this is doing quietly
If this moment ever breaks
Let it break right here with me

I don't need to cross the line
To feel how close we are

Some connections don't explode
They just stay where they start

You're closer than fire
You don't burn, you stay
You don't rush the moment
You just take me away
I've felt flames, I've felt desire
But nothing pulls me higher
Than the way you're holding me
Closer than fire

No sparks flying, no scene
Just your hand steady on me
If this is all we do tonight
It's more than enough for me

You're closer than fire
You don't fade, you remain
If everything falls quiet
I'd still choose this again
No heat higher, no desire
Could ever feel this right
You're not closer than fire
You're closer than life
