I don’t;  But I get having someone in mind. It could fit many singers. You should definitely pitch it if you get the opportunity.
ps
I’m back because I listened to it again because it’s my favorite new song!

[Verse 1]
I thought love was lightning, quick to strike and fade,
A wildfire burning till there’s nothing left to save.
But she’s steady as the sunrise, gentle as a morning dove,
I’m learning the fire of a slow burn love.

[Chorus]
No sparks flying wild, no fire out of control,
Just a steady flame that warms my soul.
She’s soft, she’s strong, she’s more than enough,
I’ve finally found a slow burn love.
No rush, no storm, just heaven above,
Holding me steady in a slow burn love.

[Verse 2]
I’ve been the kind to run fast, chase the high and disappear,
Left a trail of burned-out memories and a couple wasted years.
But she took my broken pieces, didn’t judge who I was,
Showed me healing can be holy in a slow burn love.

[Chorus]
No sparks flying wild, no fire out of control,
Just a steady flame that warms my soul.
She’s soft, she’s strong, she’s more than enough,
I’ve finally found a slow burn love.
No rush, no storm, just heaven above,
Holding me steady in a slow burn love.

[Bridge]
And now I don’t need the rush, don’t need the fallin’ fast,
’Cause what we’re building slow is the kind that’s built to last.
Yeah, she’s teaching me patience, teaching me trust,
Every moment with her feels like more than enough.

[Chorus – Final]
No sparks flying wild, no fire out of control,
Just a steady flame that warms my soul.
She’s soft, she’s strong, she’s more than enough,
I’ve finally found a slow burn love.
No rush, no storm, just heaven above,
Holding me steady in a slow burn love.

[Outro]
Yeah, the old me burned too hot, burned too rough,
But she showed me the beauty of a slow burn love.
Now my heart beats easy, never burning up,
Just holding on tight to that slow burn love.
