Wildfire – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

We were going way too fast

Chasing down the hourglass

Running from the past

Headed out with no direction

Kerosene beauty queen

Looking for her matchstick king

To burn into my heart, hand into the flame

We could set the world ablaze, 'cause

Baby, you're all I need

Come now, set me free

Like a wildfire, like a wildfire

Breathless, I can't resist

Melt with your scarlet kiss

Like a wildfire, like a wildfire

I look into your sunset eyes

Waiting for the moon to rise

So I can feel your heat

This love is so completely crazy

You've been fucking with my dreams

Ripped me like your torn up jeans

I don't even care, you can take me there

You can set me my world ablaze, 'cause

Baby, you're all I need

Come now, set me free

Like a wildfire, like a wildfire

Breathless, I can't resist

Melt with your scarlet kiss

Like a wildfire, like a wildfire

Baby, tell me where you wanna run, run

'Cause I've been burning like the morning sun

Take my hand, you can burn this city with me, oh

Play me like your first guitar

Where every single note's too hard

I don't even care, you can take me there

We can set the world on fire

Baby, you're all I need

Come now, set me free

Like a wildfire, like a wildfire

Breathless, I can't resist (can't resist)

Melt in your scarlet kiss (scarlet kiss)

Like a wildfire, like a wildfire
