River of Fire Lyrics

RIVER OF FIRE
Stan Meissner/Glen Burtnick

The night lights up ghosts in my heart
I watch them burn as I stare in the dark
Wrestling emotions I'm drawn to the flame
Caught in the shadows that call out your name
Seraching for some kind of escape
I found my way right here to this place
Where the night has no end

All of my life
My dreams run wild
Now I stand alone
In this river of fire

Through days of despair
And nights of desire
I wait for you
In this river of fire
I still remember that look in your eyes
I wish I knew then that it was goodbye
I try to fight it but I know I can't win
Sometimes your dreams just get lost in the wind

But something beyond all time and s***e
Leads me right back here to this place
At the edge of this world
All of my life
My dreams run wild
Now I stand alone
In this river of fire

Through days of despair
And nights of desire
I wait for you
In this river of fire

I burn for you
