Jaydee Bixby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Burning since we met
We've been close to something
But nothing's happened yet
You been waiting for me
Well somebody's gonna have
To make the first move
To find out how far this thing can go
We're Standing on the ledge honey
Close to the edge
Looking at the fire down below
So lets take a leap of faith together
Throw caution to the wind
And deal the cars
Cause honey the fire is waiting
And I'm ready whenever you are
Well I'll jump in my pickup
And I'll pick up some wine
It doesn't matter
Your porch or mine
We'll stare at the stars
And hang out with the moon
And maybe by tomorrow
We'll be makin' plans for two
So I'm ready whenever you are
To find out how far this thing can go
We're standing on the ledge honey
Close to the edge
Looking at the fire down below
So lets take a leap of faith together
Throw caution to the wind
And deal the cars
Cause honey the fire is waiting
And I'm ready whenever you are
And I'm ready whenever you are
