Nights On Fire

(album: New World - 1991)

But doesn't anybody hear it
A million voices up all night
A candle burns for every whispered friend
Turn this darkness into light

How many times must hearts be broken
How many hide behind this world of tears
Someday the spirit burning deep inside
Will break away from all this hope

When the night's on fire
There's a bright new sky
Lighting up our hopes with our desires
When the night's on fire
We can cut the wire
Knowing only love can take us higher higher

See the eagle rise
Inside the heart of mine
And in a world beyond tomorrow
Each captive heart can learn to fly again
Only believe and the door will open wide
Let your spirit touch the flame

When the night's on fire
There's a bright new sky
Lighting up our hopes with our desires
When the night's on fire
We can cut the wire
Knowing only love can take us higher higher

See the eagle rise
Inside the heart of mine
