Story Behind The Song
Somehow we accidentally came up with a country rock tune, which is way out of our normal genre. Not many people know this, but Christi John Bye spent some time in Nashville, which will be apparent when you hear this. I think you'll agree that it rocks...

Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Bring your ear a little closer baby, I got something to say.
There's a full moon tonight and the wolf in me is ready to bay.
If you're feelin' what I'm feelin' don't you think you oughta tell me so?
It's a pretty safe bet that we're ready for the love to grow.
(Pre chorus)
My heart is legal tender all it takes is a spark.
My body's just awaitin' the ok from my heart.
My soul wants to hear that it might just be love.
If you've got a match, now's the time to light it up!
(Chorus)
If you've got a match, now's the time to light it.
If you've got a match, go ahead and ignite it.
Once the flame starts it's too hard to fight it.
If you've got a match, now's the time to light it up.
(Verse 2)
No matter how I try, I can't get you out of my head.
We make clever conversation but there's so much more to be said.
We've both been in a situation like this before.
But you can't predict love, when it knocks you've gotta answer the door.
(Pre chorus/Chorus/Solo)
(Verse 3)
If you really want my love, you'd best not wait too long.
You know me well enough to see that I don't give it away for a song.
I got a deep desire to know if you and I got what it takes.
If it's the real deal baby, take me home and make my whole earth quake.
(Chorus)
If you've got a match, now's the time to light it.
If you've got a match, go ahead and ignite it.
Once the flame starts, it's too hard to fight it.
If you've got a match, now's the time to light it up!
If you've got a match, don't keep me waitin'.
If you've got a match, don't keep my heart achin'.
My body is thinkin' that it can't get enough.
If you've got a match, now's the time to light it up.
Light it up, light it up, light it up!
