I'm On Fire - Marianne Faithfull, Billy Corgan

I’m on fire

When I was young

Just for you

And my heart was pure

Such desire

I only wanted love

Just for you

I had allure

Still on fire

High heels ideals

Just for you

And not much fear

My desire

It’s easy

Still for you

To make love appear.

And then something sent me For what they had meant to do Whatever happened to you?

I’m on fire

Happiness

Just for you.

No more pain

Such desire

Happiness

Just for you.

And love did come

But in such disguise —

That I could

Hardly recognise!

I’m on fire

So with trust in fate

Just for you.

And love of life

Such desire

Take my chance

Just for you.

Roll the dice.

And whatever sent me

I’ll still be here for you.

Whatever happens, it’s true.

And I’m standing still

Try to show the way

Try to change the stage.

I only had to find the key

Surely love would come to me You’d look into my glittering eyes

And everything will be all right.

And so time passed.

I began to change.

I found that I Could love again.

I’m on fire

At first it feels

Just for you.

A little strange —

Such desire

Happiness

Just for you.

No more pain.

Still on fire

Happiness

Still on fire

No more pain.

Still on fire

Happiness

Still on fire

No more pain.

Still on fire
