FIRE IN THE NIGHT

I've seen a singer in the summer sun.
The night is calling and the work is done.
I feel the rain rolling down my face.
I'm looking for some sweet embrace.

The morning come, now it's time to go.
You tell that you love her so.
You kiss her so she feels alright.
Then disappear into the morning light.

I've seen fire in the night.
Shadows dancing by the fire light.
You grab your baby and hold her tight.
Sends your body on an endless flight.

The day has ended, your night is through.
You tell her that you've missed her too.
You pull her closer and hold her tight.
Sends their body on an endless love tonight.

MEMORIES OF THE NIGHT

I lay alone at nights, I'm dreaming.
Reflections of the way I'm feeling.

Visions dance throughout my head.
At times I'm living, times I'm dead.

I've played a hero, fighting crime.
And then a ruler of changing times.

I walked alone in a desert barren.
I've raised from the grave, for people I'm scarin'.

The dreams I like best to recall.
Are the ones of you most of all.

For the memories of you I like to savor.
In hopes and dreams may they last forever.
