Fire + Water Songtext
von Stormzy

It′s probably best we wait, it's probably best we found
A fire from this perfect match to burn us to the ground
And even though it′s cold outside
It's probably best we pray, to lead us from this drought
If your love is my Holy Water, girl, just let me drown
And even if you don't, it′s fine

I guess you got me figured out
We got that champagne love, don′t let it fizzle out
I know I brought a world of pain you could've did without
If you was livin′ with me then I'd probably get a bigger house
And we standin′ by the water, do we drip or drown?
Running 'round in circles, bro, just let her walk
Listenin′ to Lessons, that's a lesson taught
Second guesses really got you havin' second thoughts


Second thoughts never hurt nobody, everybody has ′em
Give you orgasms, more than you can fathom
Think we missed the touch even more than we imagined
If I saw you right now, girl, I wonder what would happen?
Orange G-Wagon you can park up on the drive
I was meant to be there when you′re startin' up your life
You make your people proud, you′re a star in all our eyes
With your apartments in the skies, I scarred you with my lies, then

Karma isn't nice, she said "I hope he doubles back on you"
When I double back, I never double back to rattle you
Hate to see you leave but I love to see the back of you
I take you out to eat then after that, I make a snack of you
I never put my hand on you, still the biggest fan of you
Good for me like collard greens and runner beans and callaloo
Every single day I close my eyes and try and channel you
Drive through memory lane and then I see you by the avenue but

It′s probably best we wait, probably best we found
A fire from this perfect match to burn us to the ground
And even though it's cold outside
(Even though it′s cold outside, probably best we)
It's probably best we pray, lead us from this drought
If your love is my Holy Water, girl, just let me drown
And even if you don't, it′s fine
(And even if you don′t, it's fine, it′s probably best we)


Holy Water, can I bless you with it?
I ain't spillin′ all my truth to try and stress you with it
I was workin' on my flaws to try impress you with it
And you don′t believe the growth but, yeah, I guess you're with it, right?
'Cause fire and fire just makes flames
And water and water just cause floods
Said you′re tired, you′re tired of these games
You said you're findin′ your calling, I call bluff

And you ain't gotta lie ′bout the reasons as to why you left
Just know the man I am today, is not the guy you met
I give you all the space you need to give your mind a rest
That's the least you deserve, too deep for a verse, my weaknesses hurt
If you ever change your mind, I beg you speak to me first
Was meant to tell the kids about the bees and the birds
Guess I couldn′t keep to my word, word

Please, stay, don't let me go
I know your heart is breakin', oh, oh

These days, the kids on their phones
Maybe we′re all forsaken, what do I know?
(What do I know? What do I know?)
(What do I know? What do I know?)
(What do I know? What do I know?)
(What do I know? What do I know?)

It′s probably best we wait, probably best we found
A fire from this perfect match to burn us to the ground
And even though it's cold outside
It′s probably best we pray, lead us from this drought
If your love is my Holy Water, girl, just let me
And even if you don't, it′s fine

It's probably best we wait, it′s probably best we found
A fire from this perfect match to burn us to the ground
Burn us to the ground

I can't put out the fire
(It's probably best we wait, it′s probably best we found)
(This fire from this perfect match to burn us to the ground)
I can′t put out the fire
(Burn us to the ground, ground)

I can't put out the fire
My pride won′t let me burn us to the ground
I can't put out the fire
I′m gettin' tired, pour me water
(Pour me water, pour me water)
I can′t put out the fire
Pride won't let me burn us to the ground
Oh, no
I can't put out the fire
I′m gettin′ tired, pour me water (pour me water)
(Pour me)

Pour me water (pour me water)
Pour me more of it (pour me more of it)
Take no caution (take no caution)
Give me everything (give me everything)
Pour me water (pour me water)
Pour me more of it (pour me more of it)
I'll take no caution (take no caution)
(Give me everything)

Right now I′m fallin' (oh-oh)
Out in the open (oh-oh)
All of my focus (oh-oh)
Is locked on where you are
Right now I′m fallin' (oh-oh)

Pour me water (pour me water)
Pour me more of it (pour me more of it)
Take no caution (take no caution)
Give me everything (give me everything)
Pour me water (pour me water)
Pour me more of it (pour me more of it)
I′ll take no caution (take no caution)
(Give me everything)

Pour me water (ooh-ooh)
Pour me more of it (ooh-ooh)
Take no caution (ooh-ooh)
Give me everything (ooh)
Pour me water (ooh-ooh)
Pour me more of it (ooh-ooh)
Take no caution (ooh-ooh)
Give me everything (ooh)
