So pour on the kerosene and put out the flame
Burn in my arms, like the angel you are
You brought heaven unto me, so I’m setting you free
I can’t take this light away from you
So all I can see is you

Your beauty and faith hath captured me
And soon everyone else will see
The light that shines so bright from thee

Sweetheart! Don’t cry
Your tears will do nothing
Exempt ascend to the sky

So pour on the kerosene and pour on the flame
Burn in my arms, like the angel you are
You brought heaven unto me, so I’m setting you free
I can’t take this light away from thee
So all I will see is you

My joy! Don’t sob
Soon you will be with our father God

So pour on the kerosene and pour on the flame
So tell me Angel, what’s your name?
You brought heaven unto me, so I’m setting you free
I can’t take this light away from you
And why would I want to?
So burn in the light that you shine onto me
So all that is in my sight is thee

Don’t worry sweetheart!
You’ve lost your wings but I’ll help you fly
Up to the heavens and into the sky.

So pour on the kerosene and put on the flame
Burn in my arms, like the angel you are
You brought heaven unto me, so I’m setting you free
I can’t take this light away from you
And why would I want to?
You’re an angel and I want the world to see the light that is shining forth from thee
My love! There is one thing left I must do, so then
So all I will see is you

Aren’t you happy and proud of me?
Oh the things I do for thee
But the time has come to say goodbye
So I'll stand back and watched you burn and cry.
