"Distant Fire" lyrics
"Distant Fire"
I just had to hear your voice tonight
My heart left me no choice tonight
I'll bet you think I'm crazy
Well, maybe I am
Yes, I know it's late to call like this
But I was memory inspired
Feelings I've been keeping
Keeping me from sleeping
Burning like a distant fire
Yesterdays are in my heart tonight
And I can't fight that old desire
Loneliness remembers love that lives in embers
Flickering from a distant fire
From where we were, to where we are
Seems so close, to be so far
I'll never own the moon and stars
But I can see them shine
Like I said it's late to call like this
Darling, I apologize
Not for what I'm feeling, just for not revealing
This love I'm sending on the wire
Burning from a distant fire

After promising forever

But nothing anyone can say
Could ever make...
Neil Sedaka - "The Hungry Years" Girl we made it to the top
We went so high we couldn't stop
We climbed the ladder leading us nowhere
Two of us together
Building castles in the air
We spun so fast we couldn't tell
The gold ring...
Tavares - "Hard Core Poetry" It depends on who is looking at the tenement walls
Whether he's coming home or passing through
You can walk the streets and find so much to criticize
But that would be the easy thing to do
'Cause...
Michael Franks - "Tiger In The Rain" Most of the time
He's the lord of the jungle
Everyone grins while he gripes
Usually he's found just
Lounging around in his stripes
His tiger lady's
A superfine feline
Just what his highness...
Eric Carmen - "Love Is All That Matters" Lost in a dance
Waiting for the chance
All I really needed was to love you
Night after night
Searchin' for the light
You saved me
You gave me something I could feel
Love is all that matters...
