| Lyrics |
Abelard When the day is dark and empty When the pouting sun has gone astray I seek out what's deep inside me To find that fire that lights my way Fire, that clarifies my vision Fire, that strengthens and makes new Pure, refine my decision To do what only I can do Where the bridge is broken, I'll put new stone Where the truth is hidden, I'll make it known Where the metal's tarnished, I'll make it glow Where the fountain stopped I'll make it flow Where the candle's out I'll find new light Where the wise are blind I'll be their sight Where the grape is sour I'll bring new wine Where the task is hopeless I'll make it mine To find that rose without a thorn To shape new worlds yet to be born To feed my passion with desire And show the world I'm made of fire Where the king fears war, we'll work for peace Where injustice prevails, I'll make it cease Where the stanger's homeless he'll be my guest Where the merchant's weary I'll find him rest If the world stands still I'll make it dance If the dream seems hopeless I'll take a chance If the orphan's hurt I'll right his wrong If the music dies, I'll sing my song After all that must be given I know I will never tire Of sharing dreams for which I've striven And show the world I'm made of fire Of fire
