Into The Fire - Big Country

Floodwaters rising on the flatlands tonight

Been here before I guess we’ll get through again

Get your photographs and hide them all away upstairs

Then tie the shutters down against the rain

Last night I took a walk into the fire

Of a young man’s dreams

Someday soon I’ll leave that innocence behind me

Until then I’m here

Then I looked into your eyes

And saw the years I spent in them

I was amazed to find they still show clear

Out to the edge of every chance I ever took with you

Shining in the darkest places of my fear

Stay free and throw your cares into the future

Let them all come out

Be true and pass those dreams onto someone

Before you wear them out

Come on baby, come on angel

Take a walk into the fire with me now

Come on angel, come on come on my darling

We can talk into the fire here and now

I love the warmth of summers I remember

I see you shimmering in seven veils of haze

I hear the rainfall of a lifetimes worth of autumn

Running on my shoulders like November days

Last night I took a walk into the fire

Of a young girl’s dreams

Someday soon I’ll leave that innocence behind me

Until then I’m here

Come on baby, come on angel

Take a walk into the fire with me now

Come on angel, come on come on my darling

We can talk into the fire here and now

Come on baby, come on angel

Take a walk into the fire with me now

Come on angel, come on come on my darling
