Slow Burn
Style: Synth ballad

[Verse 1]
Rain got into the woodpile again
still I want you closer, not less
the fire won't catch, but I don't mind
this slow smoke says more than a blaze

[Pre-chorus]
Nothing here burns fast or bright
but I've never wanted the quick kind
stay here while the smoke clears slow

[Chorus]
Victor, you're the one I keep choosing
warm as embers, never needing proving
you're the picture I still want to see
Victor, stay right here with me

[Verse 2]
You laughed when the last log wouldn't light
said we'd sit out here half the night
I watched you more than watched the flame
something in me learned your name

[Bridge]
Let the garden stay damp and grey
I've got no reason to look away
whatever this is, I'm glad it's slow

[Chorus]
Victor, you're the one I keep choosing
warm as embers, never needing proving
you're the picture I still want to see
Victor, stay right here with me

[Outro]
The logs went out, but we stayed put
smoke still rising from all that we've got
