Do you want to be a poet and write?

Do you want to be an actor up in lights?

Do you want to be a soldier and fight for love?

Do you want to travel the world?

Do you want to 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 somethin' in return



Chorus:

I want you to burn

Burn for me, baby, like a candle in my life

Oh, burn

Burn for me, burn for me



Are you gonna be a gambler and deal?

Are you gonna be a doctor and heal?

Or go to heaven and touch 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



Chorus



Laugh for me

Cry for me

Pray for me

Fly for me

Live for me

Die for us



Chorus



I want you to burn

I want you to burn for me baby

Burn for me

I want you to burn
