I Have Been a Fire

I have been a fire

I have been a fire

Burning from below

Hot enough to know

I have been a fire

You were just a flower

Always just a flower

Gentle like a rose

With charred and blackened toes

You were just a flower

And still you called me

Still adored me

Still you called me love, love, love, love

Still you called me love, you called me love

I have been a fire

I have been a fire

Silently I burn

Far too proud to learn

I have been a fire

And you became the water

You became the water

Washed me 'til I drowned

Picked me from the ground

You became the water

And still you called me

Still adored me

Still you called me love, love, love, love

Still you called me love, you called me love

And still you call me

Still adore me

Still you call me love, love, love, love

Still you call me love, you call me love
