I got some oil and some matches
You know I will do anything for you
So whether for light or for ashes
All of us burn for something
The greatest risk, the greatest wonder
Some of the time we are stolen
Most of us live our lives as thieves
So how could you know that I could be trusted
How could you know that I just know that I won't leave
Always waiting for someone to be sure
Always praying that we'll be ready for
The greatest wish, the going under
The greatest risk, the greatest wonder
You cannot give somebody joy
But you can find it by trying
You can't save someone from death
But you can love them while they're dying
Love them while they're dying
Always waiting for someone to be sure
Always praying that we'll be ready for
Yeah I'm ready, I'm ready
So give me something
The greatest wish the going under
The greatest risk the greatest wonder
The greatest risk the greatest wonder
