I wish that I was a fire
I wish that I was a fire
Burning so bright
And giving off light
I wish that I was a fire
I wish that I was a fire
That never dies
And that never cries
Maybe if I close my eyes
I can try to visualize
Just what it would be like
To burn away every day
And I would be all by myself
I don't need nobody else
As long as I've got plenty of wood to grow on
I wish that I was a fire
I wish that I was a fire
Burning so bright
And giving off light
Burning so bright
And giving off light
I will never die
I will never cry
