I Play With Fire (Demo) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know I do this every time
I walk the line, I play with fire
And I stop myself before the crime
I walk the line, yeah, I play with fire

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t wanna push you way too much
I don’t wanna lean that way too far
I don’t wanna ever learn the hard way

[Verso 2]
Is it wrong that in my mind
I cross the line? I lay with fire
I just wanna feel the high
But where’s the line, I play with fire

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t wanna push you way too much
I don’t wanna lean that way too far
I don’t wanna ever learn the hard way, no
I don’t wanna keep you in the dark
I don’t wanna gamble with your heart
I don’t wanna ever leave you lonely

[Chorus]
But if you’rе looking for stable, that’ll never bе me
If you’re looking for faithful, that’ll never be me
If you’re looking for someone to be all that you need, That’ll never be me (Hard as I try)
That’ll never be me (I play with fire)
[Verse 3]
Dry your tears now, don’t you cry
I’m by your side, at least for a while
I know I do this every time
I walk the line, yeah, I play with fire

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t wanna push you way too much
I don’t wanna lean that way too far
I don’t wanna ever learn the hard way, no
I don’t wanna keep you in the dark
I don’t wanna gamble with your heart
I don’t wanna ever leave you lonely

[Chorus]
But if you’re looking for stable, that’ll never be me
If you’re looking for faithful, that’ll never be me
If you’re looking for someone to be all that you need, That’ll never be me (Hard as I try)
That’ll never be me (I play with fire)

[Bridge]
Can’t get too close to the sun (Fire)
Baby, you’re the only one, oh, I
I’d never lie to you, baby, oh (Fire)
You give me a reason to run from the fire
‘Cause baby, you’re the only one
Oh, I swear I’d never lie
[Chorus]
But if you’re looking for stable, that’ll never be me
If you’re looking for faithful, that’ll never be me
If you’re looking for someone to be all that you need, That’ll never be me (Hard as I try)
That’ll never be me (I play with fire)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
