Into The Fire
Declan J Donovan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was just drifting
Way too much drinking
Now every Friday night Iโฒm by myself
But I'd rather spend it with you
I'm wondering are you dancing by yourself
Still singing the A team
โฒCause lately Iโฒm not thinking 'bout myself
โฒCause all I can think of is you
No lies
No, I won't hold back this time
Baby Iโฒm a lover not a fighter
But you know that I'd walk across this wire
Throw myself into the fire
Just to get to you, get to you
Iโฒm a lover not a fighter
But you know that I'd fall from every high
Throw myself into the fire
Just to get to you, get to you
I would jump into the fire, yeah
I would jump into the fire
I'd throw myself into the fire
Now my mind is on something else
Itโฒs like Iโฒm a new man
A fortune in my hands
Now I don't see nobody else
โฒCause the light that I'm lost in is you
Yeah, no angel should be left dancing all by herself
She should be the weight in my arms
โฒCause lately I'm not thinking โฒbout anybody else
All that I think of is you
Baby, I'm a lover not a fighter
But you know that I'd walk across this wire
Throw myself into the fire
Just to get to you, get to you
Iโฒm a lover not a fighter
But you know that Iโฒd fall from every high
Throw myself into the fire
Just to get to you, get to you
I would jump into the fire, yeah
I would jump into the fire
I'd throw myself into the fire
No lies
No, I wonโฒt hold back this time
Now I'm lying in your arms
Iโฒm lying in your arms (ay-ay-ay)
Baby, I'm a lover not a fighter
But you know that Iโฒd walk across this wire
Throw myself into the fire
Just to get to you, get to you
I'm a lover not a fighter
But you know that I'd fall from every high
Throw myself into the fire
Just to get to you, get to you
I would jump into the fire, yeah
I would jump into the fire
Iโฒd throw myself into the fire
The lyrics of Declan J Donovan's "Into The Fire" reflect the singer's shift in priorities from focusing too much on himself to wanting to be closer to someone he cares about. In the beginning, he talks about how he used to spend his Friday nights drinking and being by himself. However, now he thinks about the object of his affection and wants to be with her instead. He wonders if she is still the same person he knew when they were 18, singing and dancing to their favorite songs. The singer declares that he is now a new man with a fortune in his hands and sees nobody else but the light he is lost in, which is her. He acknowledges that no angel should be left dancing alone and wants to be the one to hold her.
The chorus is a declaration of his love and the lengths he would go to be with her. He repeats that he is a lover and not a fighter, but he would walk across a wire and throw himself into the fire to get to her. He further emphasizes this point by saying that he would jump into the fire, emphasizing his willingness to risk everything for her.
Overall, "Into The Fire" is a song about the singer's desire to be with the person he loves and how he is willing to do anything to be with her. It is a heartfelt, emotional song about love, commitment, and taking risks.

Lately I've been thinking 'bout myself
I've been self-reflecting lately
I was just drifting
I had no clear direction in my life
Way too much drinking
I was drinking excessively
Now every Friday night I'm by myself
I spend my Fridays alone now
But I'd rather spend it with you
I'm longing to spend my Fridays with you
I'm wondering are you dancing by yourself
I'm curious if you're alone too on Fridays
Still singing the A team
Remembering our shared memories of singing the A team when we were younger
Like when we were 18
Recalling our early days together as young adults
'Cause lately I'm not thinking 'bout myself
I'm focused on thoughts about you instead of myself
'Cause all I can think of is you
My mind is occupied with thoughts of you

A fortune in my hands

I don't see anyone else but you now
'Cause the light that I'm lost in is you
You are the only thing that I'm consumed by
Yeah, no angel should be left dancing all by herself
You shouldn't be alone when there is someone to dance with you
She should be the weight in my arms
You should be in my arms, where you belong

You're the only thing occupying my mind

Just to get to you, get to you
To be with you is my only goal
