The Fire

This is one for the endless air Every breath that I need it’s there, so When I speak you can hear my prayers To be aware This is one for the standing trees Staying put so that life can breathe, but When we take more than what we need, it isn’t fair We are here we are alive On this earth, on this earth Made to do more than survive It’s our turn, it’s our turn Make the world go round or were all going’ down in the fire That we light Life’s a gift, you get one try Do it right, do it right This is one for the solid ground Stretchin’ out as I’m homeward bound, you’re There when I put my two feet down To move around This is one for the river flow Doesn’t stop when it’s tired, it goes on So the greens and the gold can grow To feed the town We are here we are alive On this earth, on this earth Made to do more than survive It’s our turn, it’s our turn Make the world go round or were all going’ down in the fire That we light Life’s a gift, you get one try Do it right, do it right
