Wild Rivers - Backfire Lyrics
Official




From the second we met, I knew you'd be significant
Started out as a friend, something was different
Folding laundry on the basement floor and splitting a cigarette
But only when we're drinking 'cause we swore on that
Never said it out loud, secretly I was wishing it

But it was too hot to touch
Double-edged
You were in my gut, now you're stuck in my head
Can't sleep it off, been wondering

Maybe if we never bet on better timing
Waiting for the other one to break the silence
Holding our breath until we turned blue
Then we woulda made it to the other side and
Even if we failed, at least we'd know we tried it
I always wanted it to be you and I
Now I'm caught up in the backfire

If I could do it all over
I woulda kissed you in the lobby that night waiting out the storm
Maybe then we'd be closer
But I've been too afraid to lose you, so I'm taking you in any form

Too hot to touch
Double-edged
You were in my gut, now I'm stuck in my bed
Can't sleep it off, still wondering

Maybe if we never bet on better timing
Waiting for the other one to break the silence
Holding our breath until we turned blue
Then we woulda made it to the other side and
Even if we failed, at least we'd know we tried it
I always wanted it to be you and I

Oh, and if we did it all again
And nothing was the same
Would we end up here anyway?

Maybe if we never bet on better timing
Waiting for the other one to break the silence
Holding our breath until we turned blue
Then we woulda made it to the other side and
Even if we failed, at least we'd know we tried it
I always wanted it to be you and I
Now I'm caught up in the backfire, oh
Caught up in the backfire, mm
Caught up in the backfire, mm, mm

I always wanted it to be you and I
