Sparks Fly
Taylor Swift Lyrics

The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
Your movements are intense and passionate, like a torrential rainstorm.

And I'm a house of cards
I'm fragile and unstable, vulnerable to collapse at any moment.

You're the kind of reckless that should send me running
Your behavior is dangerous and unpredictable, which would normally scare me away.

But I kinda know that I won't get far
Despite the danger, I'm drawn to you and don't think I can resist you for long.

And you stood there in front of me just
You were right there in front of me,

Close enough to touch
Within touching distance,

Close enough to hope you couldn't see
Close enough to hope that you couldn't tell what was going on in my mind.

What I was thinking of
What was on my mind at that moment.

Drop everything now
Forget everything else you're doing and pay attention to me.

Meet me in the pouring rain
Come meet me outside, where it's raining heavily.

Kiss me on the sidewalk
Give me a kiss right here on the street.

Take away the pain
Make me forget about all the troubles and pain that I'm feeling.

'Cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile
Your smile has a magical effect on me, causing sparks to fly.

Get me with those green eyes, baby
Your piercing green eyes make me feel weak and vulnerable.

As the lights go down
As the darkness descends,

Gimme something that'll haunt me when you're not around
Give me a memory or experience that will linger in my mind long after you're gone.

'Cause I see sparks fly, whenever you smile
Your smile has a powerful and electrifying effect on me.

My mind forgets to remind me you're a bad idea
I know in my rational mind that being with you is a bad idea, but my heart overrides my brain sometimes.

You touch me once and it's really something
Your touch is so powerful that it immediately makes me feel something strong.

You find I’m even better than you imagined I would be
I exceed your expectations and you're pleasantly surprised by how good I am.

I'm on my guard for the rest of the world
I'm usually cautious and alert around other people.

But with you, I know it's no good
But I know that I should let my guard down with you, even though it may not be a good idea.

And I could wait patiently
I could be patient and wait for you,

But I really wish you would
But I really want you to come to me now.

I run my fingers through your hair
I gently touch and play with your hair,

And watch the lights go wild
As we enjoy each other's company, the lights around us seem to come alive and dance with us.

Just keep on keeping your eyes on me
Keep your focus on me and let's keep enjoying this moment.

It's just wrong enough to make it feel right
Our relationship might be considered taboo or wrong by others, but it feels right to us.

And lead me up the staircase
Take me upstairs to your place,

Won't you whisper soft and slow
Speak slowly and softly to me,

I'm captivated by you, baby
I'm mesmerized and enchanted by you.

Like a fireworks show
Being with you is like watching a beautiful and dazzling fireworks show.

And the sparks fly, oh, baby, smile
Our connection is so strong that even just your smile causes sparks to fly.

And the sparks fly
Our relationship is full of intense passion and sparks that fly between us.
