Hearts of Fire

It was the summer of sixty-four

we ran the streets on to the shore

And in every game we played we knew we had it made
Like no other time before.
I was just a man
you were still a child

two hearts that were running wild

There was no need to pretend
you became more than a friend

They were days without an end.

We laughed where we played
we made love where we laid

In the light again we'd run.
When the night called the tune
we'd shoot at the moon

And lavgh at what we'd done.

We were hearts of fire

Do you remember it
my friend

we didn't think that it would end.
Together then we ran
this boy became a man.
They burn on those hearts of fire

they burn on those hearts of fire

Hearts of fire!

And by seventy-two I was running free

it was just the way I wanted to be

I thought I'd left our love for dead

but my heart it ruled my head

And I fell in love instead!

We fought where we played
we made love where we laid

Just like the time before.
And if the battle should start to tear us apart

we won't go to war no more.

We were hearts of fire

Do you remember it
my friend

we didn't think that it would end.
Toghether then we ran
turn a boy into a man.
They burn on those hearts of fire

they burn on those hearts of fire

They burn on those hearts of fire
hearts of fire!

We were hearts of fire
