A   Bm Em
I'm on fire
When I was young
G    Bm  D
Just for you
And my heart was pure
F#m  G A
Such desire
I only wanted love
Bm   D   G
just for you
I had allure
A     Bm Em
Still on fire
High heels ideals
G    Bm  D
Just for you
And not much fear
F#m G A
My desire
It's easy
Bm    D   G
Still for you
To make love appear.
D            Em               
And then something sent me
D             Em
For what they had meant to do
D          A               G         Em
Whatever happened to you ?
A   Bm Em
I'm on fire
Happiness
G    Bm  D
just for you.
No more pain
F#m  G A
Such desire
Happiness
Bm   D   G
Just for you.
A  Bm  Em
	And love did come
G  Bm  D
	But in such disguise -
F#m  G  A
	That I could
Bm  D  G
	Hardly recognise!
A   Bm Em
I'm on fire
So with trust in fate
G    Bm  D
Just for you.
And love of life
F#m  G A
Such desire
Take my chance
Bm   D   G
Just for you.
Roll the dice.
D        Em
And whatever sent me
D          Em
I'll still be here for you.
D          A           G
Whatever happens, it's true.
D           Em
And I'm standing still
D           Em
Try to show the way
D           A     G
Try to change the stage.
D             G
I only had to find the key
D                 G
Surely love would come to me
D                  Em
You'd look into my glittering eyes
    A                            Bm
And everything will be all right.
Em                 G  Bm
And so time passed.
D                 F#m  G
I began to change.
A             Bm  D
I found that I
G
Could love again.
A   Bm Em
I'm on fire
At first it feels
G    Bm  D
just for you.
A little strange -
F#m  G A
Such desire
Happiness
Bm   D   G
just for you.
No more pain.
A     Bm Em
Still on fire
Happiness
A     Bm Em
Still on fire
No more pain.
A     Bm Em
Still on fire
Happiness
A     Bm Em
Still on fire
No more pain.
A     Bm Em
Still on fire.
