Love is a burning thing

And it makes the fiery ring

Bound by wild desire

I fell into a ring of fire.



I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down and the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire,

The ring of fire.



I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down and the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire,

The ring of fire.



The taste of love is sweet

When hearts like ours meet.

I felt for you like a child

And old but the fire went wild.



I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down and the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire

The ring of fire.



I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down and the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire,

The ring of fire.
