I am a fire
Can't you feel the heat
I am a furnace
Come burn in me
You are you are you are
The thing that makes me hotter
I need i need your love
To make me warmer
I'm burnin
I'm burnin

Just like the sun reveals the sky
Just like the torch becomes your guide
I’m a fire I’m a fire
And I’m burnin so bright
Just like moon heats up the night
Just like star bursts into sight
I’m a fire I’m a fire
And I’m burnin so bright

I am a fire
Can feel the heat yeah
I am desire
A girl in need
You are you are you are
The thing that makes me hotter
I need i need your love
It makes me warmer
I'm burnin i'm burnin

Just like the sun reveals the sky
Just like the torch becomes your guide
I’m a fire I’m a fire
And I’m burnin so bright
Just like moon heats up the night
Just like star bursts into sight
I’m a fire I’m a fire
And I’m burnin so bright

Burnin so bright

You gave me everything i am
Came into my heart and tour it around
How could i know you'd be the one
Honestly I am so taken
I believe in me and i in you
You're like water on my chocolate
Your light
Can you feel it
Do i need to say it
Can't you just feel it
Take your time
Let me feel it
Ooo baby ooo baby
Ooo baby ooo baby
Ooo baby ooo baby aye aye
Ohh eee aye aye
Ohh ee aye aye aye
Que será esta vida, Oh yo te quiero yo te quiero esta mañana oh la la la la.....

Just like the sun reveals the sky
Just like the torch becomes your guide
I’m a fire I’m a fire
And I’m burnin so bright
Just like moon heats up the night
Just like star bursts into sight
I’m a fire I’m a fire
And I’m burnin so bright

I'm burnin
I need ya
I'm burnin
I need ya
I’m burnin
And I need ya

As the unquestioned queen of disco, the one and only Donna Summer lit up the late 70s and 80s with flashy, exuberant vocals and automatic earworms. Born LaDonna Adrian Gaines on Dec. 31, 1948, Summer moved to Germany after being cast in a Munich production of Hair. There, she happened to meet Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, and the trio conglomerated to form a dynamic music team. With Moroder, Summer forged together her first album, The Hostage, which reached moderate success in Northern Europe. Summer’s big break, however, would come later with the release of 1975’s sexual “Love to Love You Baby”, which became one of disco’s first mainstream hits and reached #2 on the Billboard Charts.

1977 came around with the concept album I Remember Yesterday, which featured the Top 10 single “I Feel Love”. The next year, Summer hit the silver screen with the movie Thank God It’s Friday, whose soundtrack featured one of her own the iconic “Last Dance.” This would later become one of the disco legends' signature songs. “Dance” would take home an Academy Award for Best Original Song, a Grammy, and a Golden Globe, and it jumped to a peak of #3 on the charts.

Yet Summer’s illustrious career was far from finished – Summer’s first live album Live and More featured the single “MacArthur Park”, a melting ballad that was a cover of the Jimmy Webb ballad of the same name. “Park” became Summer’s first – and perhaps most memorable – No. 1 hit, and cemented her status as a vocalist as well as a performer. With the track, she became the first female in modern rock history to hold the top spot in both the Hot 100 and the Billboard 200. 1979, though, would really be the peak of her career.
