There's a fire in every mans heart
Waiting to burn
For some it takes a lifetime to learn
But back December when my world started turning
I still remember the day
I felt the weight of a thousand ships
Sail on
And I want to know what it's like
And you want to know if it's true
And I know there's a deeper side of you
I know it's been raining on you
Since you were 17
The waters rose up so high
That you lost your meaning
I miss the summer when the air was so thin
I saw you come alive
What will take to turn the light on
Turn it on
Don't let them take you down
Let them hear you sing
Singing out
Waiting to burn
For some it takes a lifetime to learn
But back December when my world started turning
I still remember the day
I felt the weight of a thousand ships
Sail on
And I want to know what it's like
And you want to know if it's true
And I know there's a deeper side of you
I know it's been raining on you
Since you were 17
The waters rose up so high
That you lost your meaning
I miss the summer when the air was so thin
I saw you come alive
What will take to turn the light on
Turn it on
Don't let them take you down
Let them hear you sing
Singing out
