Keep the Fire Burning
Ben Liebrand Lyrics

Yeah, can you feel it?
Do you sense the excitement and energy around us?

I can
Yes, I feel it.

It's good, hmm, yeah
This feeling is pleasant and enjoyable.

Now move it, hmmm
Now let's get active and dance!

Everybody that's on the dancefloor
Everyone who is currently dancing to the music.

I want you to put your hands together
I request that you clap your hands in appreciation.

And just smoothe your hips from side to side
I suggest that you move your hips rhythmically in a smooth manner.

(Keep the fire burning)
Keep the energy and enthusiasm alive.

Yeah, that's it, you got it, hmmm-mmm
Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to see from you.

Now, mister DJ (Keep the fire burning)
Attention, DJ, please keep the energy and excitement going.

I want you to countdown with
Please count down with me (to the beat drop or some other event).

It's your time to be a star
This is your moment to shine and show off your skills.

Ooh ooh ooh
Expressing enthusiasm and excitement.

You gotta write it, baby
You need to express your love and commitment through your actions.

(Keep the fire burning)
Keep the passion and excitement alive.

Yeah, it's good to me
I personally find this experience enjoyable and satisfying.

I know you feel it somehow
I am aware that you also sense the excitement and energy we are experiencing.

(Keep it burning hot)
Maintain a high level of passion and energy.

Get up, Larry
Addressing someone named Larry, asking them to get up and dance or participate.

We spend a lot of time searching for love
We often devote significant effort to finding and pursuing romantic relationships.

And never know where it's coming from
Unfortunately, we may not always know or expect when love will come into our lives.

And as soon as we get it somehow
Once we do find love, we might assume that everything will be smooth sailing from then on.

We seem to think that our work is done
Mistakenly believing that love requires no further effort or maintenance.

But the same thing it took to get that love
The effort and energy that was necessary to start the relationship.

Are the things that you'll have to do to keep it
The same type of effort and attention must be put in to maintain the relationship.

You gotta stay on your J.O.B.
You must put in consistent effort and work to maintain the relationship.

You gotta give a little, take a lot
Maintaining a relationship requires a balance of give and take, but often involves much more giving than taking.

Give it all you got, oh
Devote all of your effort and attention to the relationship.

We say a lot of things that we really mean
Early on in a relationship, we may make a lot of honest promises and express genuine feelings.

To each other when love is new
During the early stages of a relationship, when love is fresh and exciting.

Lots of promises and all the things we've said
We make commitments and express intentions for the future of the relationship.

And the things we intended to do
We have plans for the future and how we will maintain the relationship moving forward.

But as time goes by things get cold and dry
Over time, the relationship may lose some of its excitement and passion.

There's no more water in the well
The relationship has become dry and lacks the passion it once had.

And there ain't no way that two can come together
Without passion and excitement, it becomes difficult for two people to maintain their connection.

If we stay locked in our cell, oh
If we do not make an effort to revive the passion in the relationship, we may become stuck and disconnected.

Work on it) Oh, you've gotta work on it
Put in effort and attention to maintain the relationship, it will not survive on its own.

Keep it burning, keep it burning, oh, lord
Maintain the passion and excitement in the relationship.

You gotta work on your love, yeah (Yeah!)
Devote effort and attention to maintaining the connection and passion in the relationship.

You gotta give it all you've got, oh
Put in your full effort and attention to maintain the relationship.

Keep it burning hot
Maintain a high level of passion and excitement in the relationship.

Aha, yeah yeah, ooh ooh ooh
Expressing enthusiasm and excitement for the passion and energy in the relationship.
