Upon an empty plain
A young one stands
A face without a name
An open book with willing hands
A hungry heart that carries its own flame

Framed inside a door
The journey calls
The maps are lost forevermore
Behind him just one shadow fall
He walks among the many
That have come this way before

Who will guide this brave, young traveller
Walking through the great unknow?
Sanctify the rites of passage
Who can folow where he goes?

I will chase the fire
Wherever it may burn
Desire will never let me be
I will chase the fire
Everywhere I turn
The fire it burns in me

A broken wing
A ragged road
A sacrifice to get you
Where you want to go
The endless hours
This heavy load
The laws of heaven tell us
That it always must be so

So welcome in th well worn soldier
Still with miles and miles to know
Give him peace for just one moment
Love him and the let him go

I will chase the fire
Wherever it may burn
Desire will never let me be
I will chase the fire
Everywhere I turn
The fire it burns in me
