lyrics

[Verse 1]
Search disaster, you'll find a photo of you and I
Hasn't happened yet, but it's bound to go down
I wouldn't be surprised if I loved you in another life
My eyes are drawn to the impossible

[Chorus]
Like flour on a black T-shirt, you and I are messy
Like these kids throwing dirt, you and I are messy

[Post-Chorus]
No, you and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again
You and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again

[Verse 2]
Just seventeen
You smiled but couldn't believe your eyes
If this weren't me, I'd say it was treacherous

Your glance is dangerous
Wondering "what if" is hazardous
I can't make you exit my subconscious

[Chorus]
Like flour on a black T-shirt, you and I are messy
Like these kids throwing dirt, you and I are messy

[Post-Chorus]
You and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again
You and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again

[Bridge]
The sun's in my eyes now, watching you walk out
I wish the wind would blow my thoughts away
The fire burns out when rain pours down
And reason floods back to me

[Post-Chorus & Outro]
Because you and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again

You and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again

You and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again

You and I are fire, water, ice
Burning, drowning
I can't believe I'm doing this again
Ohh, again
