People been talking about love like it's fireworks|That's just a spectacle that wows the crowd before it's gone|I'd rather have my lovin' like a campfire|A flame that lasts the whole night long||So you can save your colors for the 4th of July|I'll be here enjoying all the stars up in the sky|I sing a slow burning love song|And let the music warm me through||Moon was just a sliver in the midnight sky|The kind of crescent mama calls a Cheshire smile|And you sang a sand and lonely song|I sat and listened for a while||If you knew I like my liquor brown and my music to be blue|You'd see you set the stage for me to fall in love with you|You sang a slow burning love song|I let the music warm me through||As long as there are embers hot beneath the coals|And that sad song of yours is ready for a turn|We can find the fuel to keep this fire alive|Stay up all night to watch it burn||I have learned some lessons by making misplaced bets|My heart has gotten harder but I don't play hard to get|I sing a slow burning love song|And let the music warm me through|And you should too& please let my music warm you through||
