Burned With Desire
Van Buuren Feat. Justin Suissa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

For each forgotten kiss,
For all the memories,
For all the times a look,
Said all we had to say,

You played your part so well,
A modern Romeo,
You came on Cupids wings,
And then you flew away,

When you touched my face
When you call my name
I'm burned with desire

[Repeat x2]
When you touched my face,
When you call my name,
I'm burned with desire,

But you left me in the rain

For every sleepless night,
Forever in your arms,
For every hour spent,
Lost in the reverie,

You broke your promises,
No shame and no regrets,
You burned the bridges too,
An endless mystery.

[Repeat x2]
When you touched my face (So beautiful)
When you call my name (My name)
I'm burned with desire





But you left me in the rain

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Van Buuren’s “Burned with Desire” are powerful and emotional, filled with heartbreak and longing. The song is about a lover who has left behind nothing but memories and the pain of a broken heart. The singer begins by reminiscing about the moments they shared, forgotten kisses, and all the memories they created together. A look was all they needed to communicate their feelings, and their connection was so deep that they didn't need words to understand each other.


The chorus then echoes the intensity of their love, with the singer expressing how they are burned with desire every time they are touched, hugged, or recognized by their lover. The desire that they feel is so intense that it consumes them completely, and they are left with nothing but the remnants of their past relationship. The second verse takes a darker turn, as the singer begins to explore their pain and sorrow. They talk about how they spent sleepless nights wrapped in their lover's arms, lost in a reverie that they hoped would never end.


However, their lover has broken every promise, with no regrets or shame. They have burned all the bridges, and they are now an endless mystery. The singer is left with nothing but their memories, which are now painful reminders of what they used to have. Despite the pain and the heartache, the singer cannot help but feel burned with desire for their lover. They miss them, and they long to be with them once again. However, their lover has left them in the rain, and they must now learn to pick up the pieces and move on.


Line by Line Meaning

For each forgotten kiss,
For every kiss that we've forgotten about,


For all the memories,
For all the memories we had together,


For all the times a look,
For all the times our gaze spoke louder than words,


Said all we had to say,
Conveyed every message we needed to send through our eyes,


You played your part so well,
You acted the perfect role of a modern-day Romeo,


A modern Romeo,
A contemporary version of the infamous Romeo,


You came on Cupids wings,
You arrived in my life through Cupid's mystical means,


And then you flew away,
Only to leave just as swiftly,


When you touched my face,
Every time your gentle touch graced my face,


When you call my name,
Whenever you spoke my name,


I'm burned with desire
I am filled with an intense passion for you,


When you touched my face,
Whenever your fingers brushed against my cheek,


When you call my name,
Every time I heard you call out my name,


I'm burned with desire,
I am consumed with a fiery longing for you,


But you left me in the rain
But you abandoned me, leaving me out in the cold rain,


For every sleepless night,
For every long, restless night I spent without you,


Forever in your arms,
Dreaming of holding you in my embrace, always,


For every hour spent,
For all the time we spent together, every hour,


Lost in the reverie,
Lost in our own world, deep in thought,


You broke your promises,
You shattered the promises you made to me,


No shame and no regrets,
Without remorse or guilty feelings,


You burned the bridges too,
You destroyed our connection completely,


An endless mystery.
A never-ending question mark, our relationship.
