Lyrics
I'm a brand new man, I'm a conscious man I'm a man who's burnin' for you The mistakes I've made have been chased away to the bottom of the ocean blue I'm a brand new man in a foreign land, I'm a man who's feelin' that fire And it's all so clear when I'm standing here at the peak of my desire
I want the world to know I burn for you Chorus: I feel revived again, I am alive again (Burnin' for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up I feel revived again, I'm energized again (Burnin' for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up Verse 2: Woke up in a sweat, those ghosts in my head Had a grip, but I slipped on by It's a whole new day as the darkness fades And the sun's climbing in the sky I concede, my love, that I need your love I'm before you, a broken man And it's only you, no substitutes who can renew this soul again
I want the world to know I burn for you Chorus: I feel revived again, I am alive again (Burnin' for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up I feel revived again, I'm energized again (Burnin' for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up Bridge: You got me higher than Kilimanjaro Got me believin' I can "save the day" I'm up and running like their ain't no tomorrow I'd rather burn for you than fade away I'd rather burn for you than go my way
Changed inside - more flame in the fire Can't stop, won't stop praying for desire Like the bunny on the screen feel so energized Old shell gone without a trace, new face No more shortness of breath, new pace Live life now without the taste of fear TobyMac, Double Dutch now let the smoke clear |
