I Want To Know What Love Is
© Mick Jones 1984
Lyrics
I always thought I'd set the world on fire With my dreams as kindling, the match was my desire Now the rain won't stop And as I try to light this sodden wood I learn This was never in the blueprint This was never part of my plan I've been struggling here forever And everybody's running past me to the dry land I see all the other torches Lighting up the night I am right here with my matches burning bright CHORUS: And no one needs my little light No one needs my little light No one needs my little light With my coat turned up, my back against the rain I will cup my hands to shield this fragile flame There's a bonfire blazing just around the bend And it would be so easy to toss my match right in All my friends are there together Warmth, safety and a soup can I've been struggling here forever And everybody's running past me to the dry land I see all the other torches Lighting up the night I am right here with my matches burning bright CHORUS I'll be shining like a beacon When the other embers are dying I'll be flying like an eagle Burning up the skyline, or die trying It's a lonely mission and a solitary fight But I will stay here with my matches burning bright CHORUS: If no one needs my little light If no one needs my little light It's there for me, my little light I'll never leave my little light
