* 4-bar intro
* Verse 1 When it seems so right, like it does tonight,
This is the time to be careful.
When I look at you and a dream come true,
I keep asking myself, "Is it too much too soon?"
"If we reach for the moon,
Am I taking a chance I could lose you?"
* Chorus We're standing too close to the flame.
Nothing keeps burning so brightly forever.
We could light up the sky and shine for a lifetime,
Or go out like a spark in the rain.
My heart never knows,
When it's standing too close to the flame.
* Verse 2 We should keep in mind that love can be blind,
'Til we find our way through the passion.
So let's take it slow, just let it grow.
If I hold on too tight and I don't let you breathe,
I'm afraid that you'll leave,
And the fire will turn into ashes.
* (Repeat chorus)
* Bridge It's not easy to do,
Wanting me, wanting you.
We want the loving to start
With every beat of our heart.
* (Repeat chorus)
* Coda My heart never knows
When it's standing too close to the flame.
