Friends to Lovers - Burning Secret (Dying of Thirst) Lyrics

I'm right by your side, keeping it cool
But inside I'm burning, breaking all the rules
Every word you say, every look you give
Is a spark that lights a fire I can't resist


And I know I should play it calm, stay in line
But the way that you're close drives me out of my mind


I'm holding my breath, trying to stay in control
But you light me up, pulling me out of my soul
If you only knew what you're doing to me
I'm melting inside, but I'm playing it sweet
I feel so alive, like I'm ready to burst
But you have no clue that I'm dying of thirst


Every touch, accidental, drives me insane
My heart's racing wild, can't hide it away
But I laugh it off, I act like it's fine
You don't know the storm you're stirring inside


And I'm holding on, trying hard not to fall
But the fire keeps growing, ignoring my walls


I'm holding my breath, trying to stay in control
But you light me up, pulling me out of my soul
If you only knew what you're doing to me
I'm melting inside, but I'm playing it sweet
I feel so alive, like I'm ready to burst
But you have no clue that I'm dying of thirst


Can't you feel this heat when we're eye to eye?
Or are you just blind to the fire inside?
I'm afraid to show what I'm trying to hide
But it's burning me up when you're by my side


I'm holding my breath, trying to stay in control
But you light me up, pulling me out of my soul
If you only knew what you're doing to me
I'm melting inside, but I'm playing it sweet
I feel so alive, like I'm ready to burst
But you have no clue that I'm dying of thirst


So I'll keep this secret, let it simmer and glow
Pretend it's not there, hoping you'll never know
But every glance, every laugh, every move that you make
Turns up the heat, fuels the fire, raises the stakes
