Burn Lyrics

Artist: Jo Dee Messina
Album: Burn

(Tina Arena/Pam Reswick/Steve Werfel)

Do you wanna be a poet and write
Do you wanna be an actor up in lights
Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love
Do you wanna travel the world
Do you wanna be a diver for pearls
Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above

Be anyone you want to be
Bring to life your fantasies
But I want something in return

I want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Oh burn
Burn for my, burn for me

Are you gonna be a gambler and deal
Are you gonna be a doctor and heal
Or go to heaven and tough God's face
Are you gonna be a dreamer who sleeps
Are you gonna be a sinner who weeps
Or an angel under grace

I'll lay down on your bed of coals
Offer up my heart and soul
But in return

I want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Oh burn
Burn for my, burn for me

Laugh for me, cry for me
Pray for me, fly for me
Live for me, die for me

I want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Oh burn
Burn for my, burn for me

This song judst tells of how we can't just take love and not give somthing in return. It also hints at the idea of a place where we will be able to spend all of eternity.
