[Verse 1]
Oh Jesus, we live in such a special place
What did we do to deserve this fate?
How long can it it last? What must be done
To keep it like heaven for our little children?

[Chorus]
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
Falling in love in times of war
I'm on fire

[Post-Chorus]
This is for Kennedy
This is for love
This is for Tiananmen Square
This is for America

[Bridge]
Falling in love in times of war
These are days for remembering
Kennedy, King, Tiananmen Square
These are names worth remembering

[Chorus]
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
I'm on fire
Falling in love in times of war
I'm on fire
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
I walked strange shores in search of my country
I've been away talking to the aliens
If we don't do something soon
The earth will look just like the moon

[Chorus]
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
I'm on fire (I'm on)
Falling in love in times of war
I'm on fire

[Post-Chorus]
Where were you when the world was changing?
Where were you when the passion was new?
Stand a little closer to the fire
These are times worth remembering

[Bridge]
Setting my tongue on fire
Writing in the book of the people with blood and fire
My guitar it will not sleep
Remembering all the people, the warriors
[Chorus]
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
I'm on fire
The bravest of all are falling in love
People on fire (People on fire)

[Outro]
From the Red Square to the Berlin wall
The Baltic Sea to the streets of Managua
People on fire (People on fire)
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
I'm on fire
I'm on fire (I'm on fire)
Next is Washington
Next is America
I'm on fire!
