Fire
Greyson Chance Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No it don't, come easy.
No it don't come fast.

Lock me up inside your garden.
Take me to the riverside.
Fire, burning me up,
Desire, taking me so much higher
And leaving me whole

There you were, in your black dress
Moving slow, to the sadness.
I could watch you dance for hours.
I could take you by my side.
Fire, burning me up,
Desire, taking me so much higher
And leaving me

Ooh the fire, is burning me up.
Ooh the fire.

No it don't, come easy.

No it don't come fast.

Lock me up inside your garden.
Take me to the riverside.
Fire, burning me up,
Desire, taking me so much higher
And leaving me whole.





Leaving me whole.

Overall Meaning

The song "Fire" by Greyson Chance is all about the power of desire and how it can be both thrilling and overwhelming at the same time. The opening lines of the song immediately set the tone: "No it don't come easy. No it don't come fast." This suggests that desire is not necessarily something that you can control or predict. It can sneak up on you and take hold without warning.


The next lines describe the object of the singer's desire: "Lock me up inside your garden. Take me to the riverside." These lines suggest that the person the singer is addressing is both nurturing and adventurous. The garden represents safety and comfort, while the riverside is exciting and unknown.


The chorus is the heart of the song, with the repeated lines "Fire, burning me up, Desire, taking me so much higher And leaving me whole." These lines convey the intensity of the singer's feelings, but also suggest that the desire is ultimately fulfilling and transformative.


The second verse continues the theme of desire, with the singer watching someone dance and feeling captivated by their movements. The lines "I could take you by my side" suggest that the singer wants to possess the person they are watching, but again, the overall feeling is one of admiration and wonder.


The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, ending with the line "Leaving me whole." This suggests that the singer has been changed by this experience of desire, but in a positive way.

It breaks my heart to know this amazing voice doesn't exist anymore. It's deep now and it's not the same and it tears my heart out.
