"MATCH I WANNA LIGHT"

WRITTEN BY: ERIC DURRANCE

​

DID SOMEBODY DIAL UP THE SUN, MAKE IT HANG A LITTLE HIGHER

OR ASK THAT DJ TO PLAY MY FAVORITE SONG ON THE RADIO

HELL I DON'T KNOW

AND WHY'S THAT DEEP BLUE OCEAN OUT IN FRONT OF ME LOOK WIDER

SO MUCH WIDER

MUST BE THE GIRL, NEXT TO ME, ON THE BEACH 

TURNING EVERYTHING IN TO GOLD

​

I'VE GOT MY SUNGLASSES ON, SHE'S BURNING UP MY EYES

THOSE RAYS RICHOCETTIN OF HER LEGS, COULD START A FIRE TONIGHT

ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT NOW, IS THAT SUMMER SUN GOING DOWN

AND GETTING HER FUSE LIT WITH MINE, THAT'S THE MATCH I WANNA LIGHT

THAT'S THE MATCH I WANNA LIGHT

​

WHITE DIAMOND SAND WAVES CRASH, AND SHE LIES THERE STEALING THE SUNSET

OH WHAT A SUNSET

A GIRL THAT FINES GOT THE KIND OF SHINE THAT COULD BLIND ANYONE

AND HERE SHE COMES

​

I'VE GOT MY SUNGLASSES ON, SHE'S BURNING UP MY EYES

THOSE RAYS RICHOCETTIN OF HER LEGS, COULD START A FIRE TONIGHT

ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT NOW, IS THAT SUMMER SUN GOING DOWN

AND GETTING HER FUSE LIT WITH MINE, THAT'S THE MATCH I WANNA LIGHT

THAT'S THE MATCH I WANNA LIGHT

​

MUST BE THE GIRL, NEXT TO ME, ON THE BEACH, TRUNING EVERYTHING INTO GOLD

I'VE GOT MY SUNGLASSES ON......

​

I'VE GOT MY SUNGLASSES ON, SHE'S BURNING UP MY EYES

THOSE RAYS RICHOCETTIN OF HER LEGS, COULD START A FIRE TONIGHT

ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT NOW, IS THAT SUMMER SUN GOING DOWN

AND GETTING HER FUSE LIT WITH MINE, THAT'S THE MATCH I WANNA LIGHT

THAT'S THE MATCH I WANNA LIGHT

​

THE MATCH I WANNA LIGHT...

​

YEAH... OH

​

I WANNA LIGHT

​

WANNA STRIKE IT NOW, BABY BURN IT DOWN
