keep the fire bright
there’s a river in
the evening ember glow
and you’re wishing you could see
how far it flows
rolling on to an endless sea
you’d be well on your way
if you could only set sail
but dreams can drift away
and sails can fill with doubt
where’s your vision
if the embers flicker out
don’t let it slip from view
the horizon’s awaiting
your river is fading
so keep the fire burning tonight
see just what comes into sight
don’t take forever
take it through the night
and believe the sun
will rise with the dawn
that’s all you need to go on
but for tonight
just keep the fire burning bright
i will never need to ask
what have i done
comes a moment when it’s clear
there’s only one
oh whatever you need of me
i’ve made up my mind
i give you more than you’ve asked for
there are those who can foresee
where we will go
all the future
i don’t really want to know
only that you’ll be here with me
while the embers still glow
we’ll be safe till tomorrow
keep the fire burning tonight
see just what comes into sight
don’t take forever
take it through the night
and believe the sun
will rise with the dawn
that’s all you need to go on
for tonight
just keep the fire burning bright
keep the fire burning tonight
see just what comes into sight
don’t take forever
take it through the night
and believe the sun
will rise with the dawn
that’s all you need to go on
for tonight
just keep the fire burning
keep the fire bright
who are you
keep the fire bright
where are you
keep the fire bright
you’re not alone
it’s so wonderful
keep the fire bright
