“This thing we call love has always been tricky and as beautiful as it can be, we can potentially lose ourselves in it. With the good oft en comes the

bad. That’s life and it’s scary. But the song expresses that with an intense

passion & yearning, I’m willing to risk it all for that special one who sets my soul and desire on fire, despite the potential damage it may bring.”
