Love is a burning thing
and it makes a fiery ring
bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire
(Chorus) 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

When hearts, like ours meet
I feel for you like a child
Oh but the fire went wild
(Chorus Repeat Twice)
