It was once upon a place sometimes, I listen to myself  
Gonna come in first place  
People on their way to work say baby what did you expect  
Gonna burst into flame  
Go ahead

Burning down the house  
My house, is out of the ordinary  
That’s right, don’t want to hurt nobody  
Some things, sure can sweep me off my feet  
Burning down the house

Oh, the fireman is brave, it’s said.  
His engine is a shiny red.  
If there’s a fire anywhere about,  
He’ll be sure to put it out.

Cause the fireman’s a person in your neighborhood, in your neighborhood.  
He’s in your neighborhood.  
Oh, the fireman’s a person in your neighborhood.  
He’s a person that you meet each day!

Here we are again, circles never end  
How do I find the perfect fit  
There’s enough for everyone  
But I’m still waiting in line

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold  
Who knows how to love you without being told  
Somebody tell me why I’m on my own  
If there’s a soulmate for everyone

Everybody loves somebody sometime  
Everybody falls in love somehow  
Something in your kiss just told me

Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I

Well, you don’t know what we can find  
Why don’t you come with me little girl  
On a magic carpet ride  
Well, you don’t know what we can see  
Why don’t you tell your dreams to me  
Fantasy will set you free  
Close your eyes girl  
Look inside girl  
Let the sound take you away

I can show you the world  
Shining, shimmering, splendid  
Tell me, princess, now when did  
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes  
Take you wonder by wonder  
Over, sideways and under  
On a magic carpet ride

You have to believe we are magic  
Nothing can stand in our way  
You have to believe we are magic  
Don’t let your aim ever stray  
And if all your hopes survive  
Your destiny will arrive  
I’ll bring all your dreams alive  
For you

'Cause you, you’ve got this spell on me  
I don’t know what to believe  
Kiss you once now I can’t leave  
'Cause everything you do is magic  
But everything you do is magic.

</div>

Now I tell you openly  
You have my heart so don’t hurt me  
You’re what I couldn’t find

Totally amazing mind  
So understanding and so kind  
You’re everything to me

All my life  
Is changing every day  
In every possible way

And oh my dreams  
It’s never quite as it seems  
Cause you’re a dream to me  
Dream to me

Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by.  
I say to myself, you’re such a lucky guy.  
To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true.  
Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to me.

But it was just my 'magination, running away with me.  
It was just my 'magination, running away with me.

Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels  
Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields  
In sixty-five I was seventeen and running up one-o-one  
I don’t know where I’m running now, I’m just running on empty.

Running down a dream  
That never would come to me  
Working on a mystery  
Going wherever it leads  
Running down a dream
