I Wish I Was

I wish I was a flame dancing in a candle Lighting up your living room high on a mantle I could bring some romance without any scandal And then when you were done you'd just put me out I wish I was a tune you sang in your kitchen Putting your groceries away and washing your dishes I could float around your tongue and ease the tension And then when you were done you'd just quiet down But, if I get too close Will the magic fade? Would I turn you off or away? If I pull you in Would I push you out Of something here you care about? I'm at a loss for what to do I'm drawn to you I wish I was a sweater wrapped around your hips And when it got too cold into me you'd slip And when the sun came back you would hang me up And I would watch you while you undress But, if I get too close Will the magic fade? Would I turn you off or away? If I pull you in Now, would I push you out Of something here you care about? Well, I'm at a loss for what to do But, I'm drawn to you I'm not a song I am not a sweater I'm not a fire I am something better I'm a man in love writing you a letter Will you take it? Will you keep it? Will you read it? Believe it I love you I'm sorry
