Rio Diamond - Big Ol' Fire lyrics

rate me

(Michael Gerald Lunn)

One of these days you'll turn around

And wanna get out of this someday town

Well people gonna laugh you know what they'll say

You're never gonna get away

Well there'll be fear and there'll be doubt

But they're just things that'll slow you down

Just put ‘em all in a great big pile

And stand back

And burn, baby like a big ol' fire

Build it up with your one desire

And one of these days you just might change their minds

Shine the light, blind ‘em by

A big ol' fire

A big ol' fire

And one of these days you'll find someone

Who lights you up like the rising sun

But he's been hurt and he won't feel

Like handin' you a heart of steel

Well don't you run now just you stay

‘Cause you're the one that can melt away

The loneliness down in his heart

Just take him in your arms

And burn baby like a big ol' fire

Build it up with your one desire

And one of these days you just might find the love

You're dreaming of, risin' up a big ol' fire

And when you get to where you're goin'

All you'll leave behind is ashes smolderin'

When you find the love you've always wanted

Never let it die

And burn, baby like a big ol' fire

Build it up with your one desire

And one of these days you just might change their minds

Shine the light, blind ‘em by

A big ol' fire

A big ol' fire
