Warm Summer Love
(Chorus)
I don't want the lightning, nor the flood,
Give me the steady, warm kind of love.
(Verse 1)
Gonna lay my cards down, tell you where I stand,
So you know the kind of love I can't have in my hand.
I don't want the passion like a river runnin' wild,
That leaves me feelin' breathless and lost just like a child.
(Chorus)
I don't want the lightning, nor the flood,
Give me the steady, warm kind of love.
(Verse 2)
That river’s got a current, pulls you under deep,
Full of wild promises it just can’t ever keep.
Its muddy water hides the heartache down below,
And when it dries, you’re left with nowhere else to go.
(Chorus)
I don't want the lightning, nor the flood,
Give me the steady, warm kind of love.
(Bridge)
This heart of mine’s a cold hearth, waitin' on a flame,
A love that's built on substance, not just callin' out my name.
Brick by careful brick, with a patient, steady hand,
To build a home for two souls in this weary, worn-out land.
(Final Chorus)
Lord knows, I don't need the lightning, I don't need the flood,
I'm searchin' for that steady, warm sunshine kind of love.
Don’t want a wildfire that just burns it all away,
Just a love that’s strong enough to face a brand new day.
(Outro)
I don't want the lightning, nor the flood,
Give me the steady, warm kind of love.
