lyrics

Like A Fire
By Forrest Hill

Running like a madman
Lost is a strange land
Shaking in the dark
In a world on my own

Take another gamble
Burn another candle
Shed a little light
So I can find my way home

I’ve known poets who laugh and poets who weep
But you’re the only poet that speaks to me

You’re my heart at the edge of my soul
You’re the light when I can’t let go
You’re the love that turns to gold, inside of me
You’re the day when I’m feeling low
You’re the sun when my nights are cold
You’re love fills a hole inside of me, like a fire

Burning down the fences
Turning off the senses
Listen to the sounds
Churning deep in our hearts

Falling down to wake-up
Shedding all our make-up
Touching all the shadows
That can tear us apart

I’ve known prophets who dance and prophets who sing
But you’re the one of a thousand dreams

You’re my heart at the edge of my soul
You’re the light when I can’t let go
You’re the love that turns to gold, inside of me
You’re the day when I’m feeling low
You’re the sun when my nights are cold
You’re love fills a hole inside of me, like a fire

Everything is better, when your sweet gentle heart
Comes shining down on me
There’s nothing more to do, nothing more to say
And nothing more to be

You’re my heart at the edge of my soul
You’re the light when I can’t let go
You’re the love that turns to gold, inside of me
You’re the day when I’m feeling low
You’re the sun when my nights are cold
You’re love fills a hole inside of me, like a fire
