"Somewhere Burns A Fire"

"Somewhere Burns A Fire":

The Hardcores huddle 'neath the street light
In the cool night air
Waitin' for a leader to turn the corner
Way down there
And the night with it's shadows is dark
As a silent tension flairs
While a girl on the top floor
Looks on through the windows empty stare

Old Mack pulls down the shade
And goes to lock the door
His wife's waitin' up for him
To come from his liquor store
But the night comes and whispers something in his ear
With a voice that is young
Yet with wisdom beyond its years
With a vision so clear, saying ...

All shut eyes ain't sleepin'
And all good-byes return
So light the flame, from which we came
To seek, to find, to learn
That somewhere burns a fire at night
With stargem eyes of city light
Somewhere burns a fire so bright, tonight ...

The Hardcores break moving down the street
Going nowhere fast
Searching for the visions of heroes
Returned out of the past
And the girl slides forward under covers
Praying Lord, "Why Me?"
As the night with it's grip
Holds safely to the key
Setting her free, Saying ...

All shut eyes ain't sleepin'
And all good-byes return
So light the flame, from which we came
To seek, to find, to learn
That somewhere burns a fire at night
With stargem eyes of city light
Somewhere burns a fire so bright, tonight ...

It's The Night, That holds your soul
It's the Night, That takes control
It's the Night ...
