Lyrics for “Fire Fire Fire”

These are the lyrics for “Fire Fire Fire”. I wrote these right before recording them for the first time, as has become my new way of writing. Somehow it seems to work for me, and it helps me capture the mood of a song instantly, preventing me from over-thinking the meaning or message of a song.

These lyrics were written based on the title for the song, which Anders had already come up with, together with a word or two from an early demo version he recorded for me to describe the song melody he wanted. However, the picture I was trying to draw in the lyrics are based on a particular moment I held in my head while I wrote them down.

Wait, let’s not go fast
Hold on, we can make it last
I’ve been waiting for something like this to happen
And now that it’s here I almost can’t take it in

Still, we’re here
Wishing this feeling to stay
While the fire, fire, fire burns away
And now I know it’s you

I said something wrong
And you were almost gone
Nothing in this world could keep me from holding you close
And nothing could ever keep me from letting you know

Now we’re here
Wishing this feeling to stay
While the fire, fire, fire burns away
And how I know that it’s you
