Slow Burn Lyrics

[Verse 1: Mario & Katlynn Simone]
I've seen way too many stars die out before their time (hey-ey)
But I want this to last forever, yeah
Been out to way too many bars wasting all my nights
Hanging round with now-or-nevers


[Pre-Chorus: Mario, Katlynn Simone, Both]
Strike a match, there's nothing to it
There's a million ways that we could do it
Don't wanna look back and say we blew it
We blew it


[Chorus: Both, Mario, Katlynn Simone]
I want a slow burn (Slow burn)
It may take a little longer
But a
slow burn (Oh)
Is only gonna make us stronger
We can shout it from the rooftops
Setting fireworks off
All through the night (The night)
But we should light a candle
And just
take our time

[Post-Chorus: Both, Mario, Katlynn Simone]
Slow burn (slow)
Slow burn (slow burn)
Slow burn (Yeah, oh)
Take our time
[Verse 2: Mario & Katlynn Simone]
I've seen way too many moments turn to memories
Then they're gone and I don't even know what happened, no
I spent so much time trying to live my dreams and
I'm still not seeing any satisfaction, no

[Pre-Chorus: Both, Katlynn Simone]
Strike a match, there's nothing to it (To it)
There's a million ways that we could do it
If we could just get through it
Get through it

[Chorus: Both, Mario, Katlynn Simone]
I want a slow burn (Yeah, oh)
It may take a little longer
I want a slow burn, oh (Only gonna)
It's only gonna make us stronger (Woah)
We can shout it from the rooftops
Setting fireworks off
All through the night
But we should light a candle
And just
`take our time

[Post-Chorus: Both, Mario, Katlynn Simone]
Slow burn (slow, slow burn)
Slow burn (slow burn)
Slow burn (slow)
(Slow burn) I want a
[Chorus: Both, Mario, Katlynn Simone]
We can shout it from the rooftops (Shout it from the rooftops)
Setting fireworks off
All through the night (slow)
But we should light a candle (We should light a candle)
And just take our time

[Outro: Both, Mario, Katlynn Simone]
Slow burn (slow, slow burn)
Slow burn (slow burn, yeah)
Slow burn (slow, oh)
Oh
