Fire In the Sea

I am fire in the sea, look at me. I am fire in the sea. I am shooting flames, that can not be overwhelmed by the waters. I am fire in the sea, look at me. I am the ember 'neath the waves can't you see? glowing there like a starfish, let it be. I'm so bright, could blind your eyes don't look away. The ocean wind blows in your hair, what's there to say. The wind blows,and the flames whip the air. There's a crackle, hiss of foam, try not to care. If you do you might cry, so let it be. I am fire in the sea, look at me. there's a place 'neath the sea foam where I go, so deep none can find me, no one knows. It's the darkest part of my soul I do not show. I am there beneath the waves where no one goes. I am fire in the sea, look at me. I am fire in the sea, I am shooting flames that cannot be overwhelmed by the waters. I am fire in the sea, look at me.
