Daltrey Roger - After The Fire lyrics

After the Fire

from the Roger Daltrey LP "Under a Raging Moon"

[Unpunctuated, as that's the way the liner notes had it. ---Rsk ]

After the fire the fire still burns

The heart grows older but never ever learns

The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns

After the fire the fire still burns

I heard a voice asking what happens after the fire

And then the sound of a breaking window and the scream of a tyre

And then the sound of a distant gun and the cry of a hungry child

The night is hot

But nothing's gonna stop

This gang going wild

After the fire the fire still burns

The heart grows older but never ever learns

The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns

After the fire the fire still burns

I saw Matt Dillon in black and white there ain't no colour in memories

He rode his brother's Harley across the TV while I was laughing at Dom deLuise.Daltrey Roger - After The Fire - http://motolyrics.com/daltrey-roger/after-the-fire-lyrics.html

Now I'm cycling all my video tapes, I'm crying and I'm joking

I've gotta stop drinking

I've gotta stop thinking

I've gotta stop smoking

After the fire the fire still burns

The heart grows older but never ever learns

The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns

After the fire the fire still burns

The fire still burns, raging through the pain

Blackening the promises the tears and the rain

The fire will burn

'Til the wind begins to turn

And it all begins again

After the fire the fire still burns

The heart grows older but never ever learns

The memories smoulder and the soul always yearns

After the fire the fire still burns
