Lyrics
I would always seem careful with my words
I am usually cautious with my words
When I'm around you
Especially when I'm in your presence
I don't wanna light that fire tonight
I'm hesitant to ignite emotional intensity tonight
He is just a boy, who metamorphoses his heart
Referring to someone as a boy undergoing emotional transformation
And I've taken time to turn against the tide when you need it
I've invested effort in going against difficulties when necessary
I don't wanna light that fire
I don't want to provoke strong emotions
I don't wanna light that fire tonight
I prefer not to escalate emotions tonight
Don't say "I love you"
Advising against expressing love because of sadness
Don't say "I love you"
-Don't say "I love you"
-'Cause you're sad that you are
Suggesting that expressing love may be a reaction to personal sadness
Don't say "I love you"
Reiterating the caution against saying "I love you"
Don't say "I love you"
-Don't say "I love you"
-'Cause you're sad that you are
Linking the expression of love to personal sadness
I would always seem careful with my words
Repeating the theme of being careful with words
When I'm around you
Especially when in your company
I don't wanna light that fire tonight
Reiterating reluctance to ignite strong emotions tonight
He is just a boy, who metamorphoses his heart
Describing someone as a boy undergoing emotional change
And I've taken time to turn against the tide when you need it
Having taken time to confront challenges when needed
I don't wanna light that fire
Continuing the reluctance to initiate intense emotions
I don't wanna light that fire tonight
Reiterating the desire not to ignite strong emotions tonight
Don't say "I love you"
Repeating the advice against expressing love due to underlying sadness
Don't say "I love you"
-Don't say "I love you"
