I heard a voice asking what happens after the fire
|
And then a sound of breaking window and the scream of a tyre
|
And then the sound of a distant gun and the cry of a hungry child
|
The night is hot
|
But nothingĄ¯s gonna stop
|
This gang going wild
|
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
The heart grows older but never ever learns
|
The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
|
I saw Matt Dillon in black and white there aint no colour in memories
|
He rode his brotherĄ¯s Harley across the T.V. while I was laughing at Dom deLuise
|
Now IĄ¯m cycling all my video tapes, IĄ¯m crying and IĄ¯m joking
|
IĄ¯ve gotta stop drinking
|
IĄ¯ve gotta stop drinking
|
IĄ¯ve gotta stop drinking
|
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
The heart grows older but never ever learns
|
The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
|
The fire still burns, raging through the pain
|
Blackening the promises the tears and the rain
|
The fire will burn
|
ĄŽTil the wind begins to turn
|
And it all begins again
|
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
The heart grows older but never ever learns
|
The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
The heart grows older but never ever learns
|
The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns
|
After the fire the fire still burns
|
