Forest Fire Lyrics

Beth Rowley Forest Fire

I'm a live wire, and you are, too.
Sparks seem to fly when I'm close to you.
Why does my mind reject what my heart desires?
I hold no desire cause I'm starting a forest fire.

Cause I've been burned before,
and now I long to be sure.
Before the flames grow any higher,
before we go starting a forest fire.

Don't want to start, but I can't stop.
Don't light my heart or I will let it drown.
Why can't my mind accept what my soul desires?
It knows that we're starting a forest fire.

Well, I've been burned― I've been burned before,
And now I long― I long to be sure.
Before the flames grow any higher,
before we go, we'll be starting a forest fire.

I'm a live wire, and you are, too.
Sparks seem to fly when I'm anywhere near you.
Why does my mind reject what my heart desires?
It knows we'll be starting a forest fire.

I know that we're starting a forest fire.
I know that we're starting a forest fire.
