Ring of Fire
Feestteam Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And it makes a firery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire...
I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher.
The ring of fire
The ring of fire.
I fell in to 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.
The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like our's meet
I fell for you like a child
Oh, but the fire went wild.
I fell in to 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.
I fell in to 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.
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire
The ring of fire.
The lyrics to "Ring of Fire," written by June Carter Cash and popularized by Johnny Cash, are a poetic description of the intense passion and emotional intensity that comes with falling in love. The image of a "burning ring of fire" encapsulates the idea of being consumed by passion and desire, as well as a certain danger and risk inherent in giving oneself over so completely to another person.
The repetition of the phrase "I fell into a burning ring of fire/I went down, down, down/And the flames went higher" reinforces the idea of being caught up in a whirlwind of emotions, and the chorus emphasizes the all-consuming nature of love with its repetition of "it burns, burns, burns/The ring of fire." The notion that "the taste of love is sweet/When hearts like ours meet" suggests that despite the risks and potential for pain, love is ultimately a positive and rewarding experience.
The final repetition of the chorus, stripped of the verses that came before it, leaves us with the stark image of a ring of fire that continues to burn and consume. This could be interpreted as a warning or caution to be mindful of the potential dangers of unchecked passion and desire.

Heerlijk deze remix. Jullie maken altijd gave covers van de beste hits. Mensen die wat te zeuren hebben: in Limburg wordt vrijwel alles gecoverd met carnaval, dus dan valt dit nog wel mee. :P
