[B] [A]
I wish I was a flame dancing [D] in a candle [A] Lighting up your living room high
[D] on the mantle
I could [Bm] bring some romance without [D] any scandal And then when [A] you were done, you just put
me [D] out
[A] I wish I was a tune you sang [D] in your kitchen
[A] Putting your groceries away and [D] washing your dishes
I [B] could float around your [Bm] tongue and [D] ease the tension
And then when [A] you were done, [D] you just quiet down
[A]
[F#m] But if I [D] get too close, will [A] the magic fade?
Would I [C#m] turn you off
[F#m] or away?
If [D] I pull you in, would [A] I push you out?
[C#m] Of something here [A] you care about Well, [Bm]
I'm at a loss for [D] what to do
But [E] I'm drawn to you
I wish [A] I was a sweater wrapped around your [D] hips
And [A] when it got too cold, into me you'd slip
[D] And when the sun [Bm] came back, [A] you would hang me [D] up
And [A] I would watch [Am] you while you [D] undress
[A]
But if [D] I get too close, [A] will the magic fade?
