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 aboveBe anyone you want to be
Bring to life your fantasies
But I want something in returnI want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Oh burn
Burn for me burn for meAre 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 graceI'll lay down on your bed of coals
Offer up my heart and soul
But in returnI want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Oh burn
Burn for me burn for meLaugh for me, cry for me
Pray for me, fly for me
Live for me, die for meI want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Oh burn
Burn for me burn for me
