Here's the deal
Cause I know you wanna talk about it
Here's the deal
I promise you like a million tomorrows
Here's the deal
Cause I know you wanna talk about it
Here's the deal
I promise you like a million tomorrows
Here's the deal
What I can promise is I'll lie down
Like a bed of wildflowers
And I'll always make the sheets
Smell like gardenias wild at your feet
And I nourish you hazily
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Baby, I, I, I, I've been running on stardust
Alone for so long
I wouldn't know what hot fire was
Hot fire, hot weather, hot coffee, I'm better with you
It's strange, but it's true, darling
[Chorus]
Not to turn into a wildfire
To light up your night
With only my smile and nothing that burns
Baby, I'll be like a wildflower
I live on sheer willpower
I'll do my best never to turn into something
That burns, burns, burns
Like the others baby, burns, burns, burns
[Verse 2]
Here's the deal
Cause I know you wanna talk about it
Here's the deal
You say there's gaps to fill in so here
Here's the deal
My father never stepped in
When his wife would rage at me
So I ended up awkward but sweet
Later then hospitals and still on my feet
Comfortably numb but with lithium came poetry
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And baby, I, I've been running on star drip
IV's for so long
I wouldn't know how cruel the world was
Hot fire, hot weather, hot coffee, I'm better
So I turn, but I learn
(It from you, babe)
[Chorus]
Not to turn into a wildfire
To light up your night
With only my smile and nothing that hurts
Baby, I run like a wildflower
I live on sheer willpower
I promise that nothing will burn you
Nothing will burn, burn, burn
Like the others baby, burns, burns, burns
Burn, burn, burn
Like the others baby, burn, burn, burn
[Outro]
It's you from whom I learn, learn, learn
It's you from whom I learn, learn, learn
Hier is die deal
Want ek weet jy wil praat oor dit
Hier is die deal
Ek belowe jou soos 'n miljoen ketting
Hier is die deal
Wat ek kan jou belowe is ek sal gaan lê
Soos 'n bed van veldblomme
En ek sal altyd maak die velle
Ruik soos katjiepierings wilde by jou voete
En ek voed jy wasig
[Pre-Koor 1]
Baby, ek, ek, ek, ek is wat uitgevoer word op Stardust
Alleen vir so lank
Ek sou nie weet wat warm brand was
Warm vuur, warm weer, warm koffie, ek is beter met jou
Dit is vreemd, maar dit is waar, liefling
[Koor]
Nie om te draai in 'n veldbrand
Aan die lig van jou aand
Met net my glimlag en niks wat brandwonde
Baby, ek sal wees soos 'n veldblom
Ek woon op pure wilskrag
Ek sal my bes nooit om te draai in iets te doen
Wat brand, brand, brand
Soos die ander baba, brandwonde, brandwonde, brandwonde
[Vers 2]
Hier is die deal
Want ek weet jy wil praat oor dit
Hier is die deal
Jy sê daar is gapings te vul in so hier
Hier is die deal
My pa het nooit ingegryp
Toe sy vrou sou woed by my
So beland ek ongemaklik maar soet
Later dan hospitale en nog op my voete
Gemaklik gevoelloos maar met litium gekom gedigte
[Pre-Koor 2]
En baba, ek, ek is wat uitgevoer word op ster drip
IV is vir so lank
Ek sou nie weet hoe wreed die wêreld was
Warm vuur, warm weer, warm koffie, ek is beter
So ek draai, maar ek leer
(Dit verhoed, babe)
[Koor]
Nie om te draai in 'n veldbrand
Aan die lig van jou aand
Met net my glimlag en niks wat seer
Baby, ek hardloop soos 'n veldblom
Ek woon op pure wilskrag
Ek belowe dat niks wat jy sal brand
Niks sal brand, brand, brand
Soos die ander baba, brandwonde, brandwonde, brandwonde
Brand, brand, brand
Soos die ander baba, brand, brand, brand
[Outro]
Dit is jy van wie ek leer, te leer, te leer
Dit is jy van wie ek leer, te leer, te leer
