Slow Burn

Slow Burn (words and music by Lisa Torch)

                Verse 1

Doing a slow burn for your love

Some kind of connection with the heavens above
Can you hear me now - can you hear me crying?
Making up dreams, you’re not real enough
Playing them over and over
Baby can you see me now - can’t you see that I’m not lying?

                Pre Chorus

And I’ve never felt this way

When there are no more words I can say

                Chorus

And no matter where I turn
I feel your slow, slow burn

                Verse 2

Staring out windows in touch with your light
Wondering what you could be doing tonight
Am I a part of your world - are you dreaming of me?
A little bit of magic whenever we touch
A look in your eyes that says too much
You know I feel the same - But could you really love me?

                Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus

                Bridge

I walked along the water and I drank it from my hands
Wished I was alone with you on pale enchanted sand
Dreamed the fire in your eyes was burning just for me
I’m haunted by your every touch and I fall too easily

                Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus

New Song

 

(Tell My Heart to) Leave Me Alone

I don’t know how to exist in your world

Don’t fit as a friend, don’t fit as a love

Got a great big life, feel like I need you in it

Makes no sense, and it's not enough

Taking big chances, I feel restless

Can’t sleep, 'cause I think too much

Can't even believe that my heart would do this

Back and forth I'm such a hot mess

Wish there was some kind of magic

Just to tell my heart to leave me alone

Just to tell my heart to leave me alone

I tell the director in my head to stop playing these scenes

Focus on the weather or the traffic ‘cause I know what that means

Talk to my girlfriends to giggle and plan

Flirt with boys, just to keep from going home

Glad that you think I’m cute

Just when I think I'm good, there's a message on my phone

Can't even believe that my heart would do this

Round and round I'm such a hot mess

Maybe it’s some kind of tragic

Just to tell my heart to leave me alone

What do I even think I need from you? It’s so confusing

Every time we talk I wish I could be more amusing

Can't even believe that my heart would do this

Back and forth, I'm such a hot mess

Wish there was some kind of magic

That could to tell my heart to leave me alone.
