We, we dont have to worry bout nothing
Cause we got the fire
And were burning one hell of a something
They, they gonna see us from outer space
Outer space, light it up
Like were the stars of the human race, human race
When the lights turned down, they dont know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
Well be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
Cause we got the fire, fire, fire
Yeah, we got the fire, fire, fire
And we gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
Gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We dont wanna leave
No, we just wanna be right now, right, ri-ri-right now
And what we see, is everybodys on the floor
Acting crazy, getting loco til the lights out
Musics on, Im waking up
We start the fire, and we burn it up
And its over now, we got the love
Theres no sleeping now, no sleeping now, sleeping now
When the lights turned down, they dont know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
Well be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
Cause we got the fire, fire, fire
Yeah, we got the fire, fire, fire
And we gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
Gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
When the lights turned down, they dont know what they heard

I wonder
if I’m being real do I speak my truth or do I filter to how I feel
I wonder
Wouldn’t it be nice to live inside a world that isn’t black and white
I wonder
What it’s like to be my friends
Hope that they don’t think I forget about them
I wonder
I wonder
Right before I close my eyes
The only thing that’s on my mind
Been dreaming that you feel it too
I wonder what it’s like to be loved by you
Yeahhhh
I wonder what it’s like
I wonder what it’s like to be loved
I wonder
Why I’m so afraid of saying something wrong and never said I was a saint
I wonder when I cry into my hands I’m conditioned to feel like it makes me less of a man
And I wonder if some day you’ll be by my side and tell me that the world will end up alright
I wonder
I wonder
Right before I close my eyes
The only thing that’s on my mind
Been dreaming that you feel it too
I wonder what it’s like to be loved by you
Yeahhhh
I wonder what it’s like
I wonder what it’s like to be loved by you
I wonder what it’s like to be loved by you
Yeahhhh
I wonder what it’s like to be loved by you
I wonder what it’s like to be loved
Right before I close my eyes
The only thing that’s on my mind
Been dreaming that you feel it too
I wonder what it’s like to be loved by you
