Lyrics

Fan the Fire

Celebrate the time I spent on her
I guess I couldn't get away
No more people wasting all my time
Precious moments thrown away

And if you cannot stand the heat
I'll fan the fire
I'll be the only one who helps you along the way
I'm hoping that you keep in mind
The ever-turning hand of time
Will carry you away

Now you're sleeping
In the bed you've made
Now I see no other way
See your dreams now
And dream your life away
In the cold light of day

And if you cannot stand the heat
I'll fan the fire
I'll be the only one who helps you along the way
I'm hoping that you keep in mind
The ever-turning hand of time
Will carry you away

And if you cannot stand the heat
I'll fan the fire
I'll be the only one who helps you along the way
I'm hoping that you keep in mind
The ever-turning hand of time
Will carry you away

And if you cannot stand the heat
I'll fan the fire
I'll be the only one who helps you along the way
I'm hoping that you keep in mind
The ever-turning hand of time
Will carry you away
