Lyrics

“The Fire Dream”

Now I sit in the dying light of day
Resting by the fire
Light a couple of candles as the day fades away
Feel my eyes start to tire
Awake yet asleep my eyes are open wide
Here comes those waking dreams
Where everything seems so real
But nothing is as it seems

What do I know?
What do I see?
What in the world
is happening to me?

I dream of fire
On the darkest night
Shifting in the flame
Of the candle light

I dream of fire
It lights my way
What will I see?
At the end of this day

Fire Dreams, so real it seems
I know I see this for a reason
Fire Dreams, ocean screams
Natures magic, my minds treason

I see a tall castle, lit without flame
Or maybe an Abbey, it all looks the same
I see a desk where a man writes
Not with ink but with glowing light
He looks lonely and a little sad
Like myself, missing what he once had
But a man of peace, and honor still
Living out his days with Natures will

I see a number
On the wall
I’ll write it down
After I fall


Out of this dream of fire
I see more each day
The longer I look
The longer I stay

Fire Dreams, so real it seems
I know I see this for a reason
Fire Dreams, ocean screams
Natures magic, my minds treason

Then it strikes me, this man is me
Another life, yet to be
And I can reach out, over time
Send him or me some words of mine
I’ll write a letter, from me to me
Then I’ll know, just what to do
When I get the letter from me to you

It will help his pain
To know that I am here
Voice across time
From a distant year

Now I know why
I’ve seen these sights
What is shown to me
These sleepless nights

Fire Dreams, so real it seems
I know I see this for a reason
Fire Dreams, ocean screams
Natures magic, my minds treason

Dream with candles, soften eyes
Watch the mind for a surprise
Dream with quiet, and an open heart
Breathe even, slow and apart
Dream with vision, mind’s eye bright
Candles taking you deeper into the night
Dream of fire, ask the way
Fire Dreams at the end of the day
