Hot & Heavy - Lucy Dacus

Being back here makes me hot in the face

Hot blood in my pulsing veins

Heavy memories weighing on my brain

Hot and heavy in the basement of your parents' place

You used to be so sweet

Now you’re a firecracker on a crowded street

Couldn’t look away even if I wanted

Try to walk away but I come back to the start

Get me to the floor even though I’m not a dancer

Ask me all the questions that your parents wouldn’t answer

How could I deny it, diamond in the rough

You let me in your world until you had enough

You knew that I wanted you to bend the rules

How did I believe I had a hold on you

You were always stronger than people suspected

Underestimated and overprotected

When I went away it was the only option

Couldn’t trust myself to proceed with caution

The most that I could give to you is nothing at all

The best that I could offer was to miss your calls

Being back here makes me hot in the face

Hot blood in my pulsing veins

Heavy memories weighing on my brain

Hot and heavy in the basement of your parents' place

You used to be so sweet

Now you’re a firecracker on a crowded street

Couldn’t look away even if I wanted

Try to walk away but I come back to the start

And it happens over and over, and over and over again

Over and over, and over and over again

I wish I was over it, over it, over it, over it

A hidden gem, my own goldmine

You had the wide and wild eyes

You were a secret to yourself

You couldn’t keep from anyone else

Now you’re the biggest brightest flame

You are a fire that can’t be tamed

You’re better than ever, but I knew you when

It’s bittersweet to see you again
