Verse_2: 

 
 

In_the_forest_Im_burning,_struck_down_by_the_blast 

The_fever_is_churning,_and_the_heat_rises_fast. 

and_those_standing_nearest_can_show_their_concern 

but_I_swear_if_they_touch_me_that_they_too_will_burn. 

They_fear_for_their_lives_for_death_will_soon_dwell 

in_the_warmth_of_your_love_is_the_fire_of_hell. 

 
 

 
 

(Chorus) 

 
 

 
 

Verse_3: 

 
 

And_soon_the_sparks_scatter_and_wind_whips_the_flame 

and_love_will_soon_shatter_what_it_cannot_tame 

and_the_cycle_continues,_from_life_into_dust 

for_I_am_now_in_you_with_the_fire_of_lust. 

And_I_hear_the_explosion,_of_thunder_and_rain, 

the_water_is_falling,_the_ashes_remain. 

 
 

 
 

(Chorus) 

 
 

 
 

Verse_4: 

 
 

The_Indians_tell_us_that_the_Phoenix_can_rise 

from_the_smoldering_ashes_that_once_were_my_eyes 

and_watch_beautiful_colours_from_black_and_from_grey 

be_formed_into_wings_and_take_me_away 

where_evil_is_darkness_and_goodness_is_light 

and_love_is_the_lightning_that_cuts_through_the_night 

and_strikes_only_once_in_a_dark_place_in_time 

and_forms_a_gold_stairway_that_all_of_us_climb.
