Just paging through one of my notebooks of scribbles, and tripped across the following lyric:

Set my guitar on fire with a long-stemmed match
Dance while it burns and laugh when it turned to ash
I would torch everything to keep you warm
I would do anything to keep you from harm

I would do anything
To cover you body and soul, girl
I would give everything in the world
To cover you.

Walk down a dark street naked on a winter's night
Run from the law like that day i first saw the light
To defend your spirit i would go to war,
I would chase all your devils to some god's door.

It's a little more lyrical and has better scansion than most of the stuff i write, so i don't think it's original- more likely that i heard it at some point and just started scribbling the lyrics down. For that matter, i can hear music behind it- kind of a jangly three chord drone, and, for whatever reason, i think A minor/Dm/Em is the majority of the progression.
Anyone got any ideas?
