Jo Dee Messina – Burn lyrics
Do you wanna be a poet
And write?
Do you wanna be an actor
Of the lights?
Do you wanna be a soilder
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?

[Bridge:]
Be anyone you want to be
Bring to life your fantacies
I want something in return...

[Chorus:]
I want you to Burn
Burn for me Baby
Like a candle in my night
Burn, Burn for me, Burn for me

Are you ganna be a gambler
And deal?
Are you gonna be a docter
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 weaps?
Or an Angel
Under grace?

[Bridge:]
I'll lay down on your bed of coals
Offer up my heart and soul
But in return...

[Chorus:]
I want you to Burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Burn, Burn for me, Burn for me

Oooohhh

I want you to Burn, Baby
Oooohhh

Lie for me - Cry for me
Pray for me - Fly for me
Live for me - Die for us

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

Yeah

I want you to Burn
I want you to Burn for me Baby

Oh yeah

Burn for meeee

Yeah

Yeaaaah

I want you to Burn

I want you to Burn with me Baby

Burn for meeee

Woahoowoah
