Lyrics
[verse]
Something's crawling underneath my skin
Restless engine, won't let me sleep in
Your shadow passes by my window pane
Quiet thunder, a slow-burning flame
[chorus]
I'm on fire, low and steady, deep inside
I'm on fire, a secret I can't hide
Every night the same relentless spark
Burning quiet in the dark
[verse]
You don't know it but you cross my mind
Like a whisper I keep leaving behind
Cool sheets can't put out what's begun
This ain't over till the ache is done
[chorus]
I'm on fire, low and steady, deep inside
I'm on fire, a secret I can't hide
Every night the same relentless spark
Burning quiet in the dark
[bridge]
Maybe it's foolish, maybe it's true
There's a hunger in me only known to you
I won't say it loud, I'll just let it burn
Some fires are patient, waiting their turn
[chorus]
I'm on fire, low and steady, deep inside
I'm on fire, a secret I can't hide
Every night the same relentless spark
Burning quiet in the dark
