Close To The Fire 歌词

There's a voice, the distant roar of thunder A silent trembling of the earth It talks of mystifying powers But few can hear the words There's a hand that holds a child's illusions Where a million dreams, still kept within All speak of love and hate and passion Of joy and pain and sin When the sky's ablaze and the lands deserted All the waters deeply frozen When hunger reigns and the wolves are howling You can find the thieves and liars Close to the fire In the age that man will reach the planets While rivalling tribes are marching up for war Every single beat of life's enchanting rhythm Is louder than before But no word seems to be remembered No truth eternal, once it is revealed All promises and vows lost or broken Like wounds that never healed When the sky's ablaze and the lands deserted All the waters deeply frozen When hunger reigns and the wolves are howling You can find the thieves and liars Close to the fire There is no answer to the question We stand accused but never learn To see we've only come full circle Carry the torch that makes us burn Now the sky's ablaze and the lands deserted All the waters deeply frozen Where hunger reigns and the wolves are howling We become the thieves and liars Close to the fire
