Wildfire
As I looked into your eyes
I saw my future go up in flames
The second I looked into your eyes
I knew it was over
I felt everything slipping away
But I didn’t care
I felt the fire starting to burn
Burn everything’ve ever worked for
But I didn’t care
Because the look in your eyes
The look in your eyes could cause a million wildfires
And I wouldn’t care
As long as i didn’t have to look away
Your bright brown eyes felt pulling
Almost like a magnet
It was so strong
I felt like giving everything up
In that moment nothing mattered
I felt the fire
I felt everything going up in flames
But I didn’t care
As long as I was with you
As long as I didn’t have to look away
I didn’t care what I have to do
As long as I don’t have to look away
From the fire within your beautiful brown eyes
I look back on the moment every day
And all I can think of everytime
“Now isn’t that some Bonnie and Clyde shit”
