MADD1E - Slow Burn

Verse 1

August sun on my shoulder, I drive the old dirt road

Bare feet on the dashboard, your name on my phone

You left me wild and wondering with all these midnight doubts

Your jacket’s in the backseat, windows rolled down

Chorus

If loving you’s a slow burn, I never felt the flame

The way your memory lingers, like summer rain

I keep waiting for the thunder, but you don’t call my name

I’m breaking in the quiet, but I’d do it all again

Verse 2

Take me back to front porch secrets, laughing in the dark

Every word you whispered turned my silence into sparks

Now I’m tracing conversations you left in the breeze

Playing back your promises, hoping you’ll come back to me

Chorus

If loving you’s a slow burn, I never felt the flame

The way your memory lingers, like summer rain

I keep waiting for the thunder, but you don’t call my name

I’m breaking in the quiet, but I’d do it all again

Bridge

Clouds rolling over golden fields, I see your face so clear

If time could heal a heart like mine, I’d still want you here

Chorus

If loving you’s a slow burn, I never felt the flame

The way your memory lingers, like summer rain

I keep waiting for the thunder, but you don’t call my name

I’m breaking in the quiet, but I’d do it all again

Outro

Someday you’ll remember all the love you threw away

I’ll be driving through the summer, searching every day
