I saw the young man standing, arms across his chest He was afraid to speak the words that put his coolness to the test But then he rose above and spoke of love and all that he had found And he brought us all to tears like bringing rain back to he ground ‘Cause we're all burning, we're burning to love We're burning, we're burning to love We're learning that all we want and all we need Is love We're burning to love I felt the mother's loss, her sadness and her pain As she stood beneath the cedars, she was whispering his name The life that breathes us is fleeting as a song When we fly, we leave each other with empty, aching arms
That leaves us burning, burning to love We're burning, burning to love We're learning that all we want and all we need Is love We're burning to love Love So will you help me wear my heart out on my sleeve Bring the alter to my doorstep, I'm already on my knees Yeah Yeah, I'm burning, burning to love I'm burning, burning to love I'm learning that all I want and all I need Is love I'm burning to love Oh yeah, I'm burning, burning to love I'm burning, burning to love I'm learning, I'm learning that all we need Is love Love Burning to love
