Distant Fire Songtext

von Michael Johnson

I just had to hear your voice tonight
My heart left me no choice tonight
I'll bet you think I'm crazy
Well maybe I am

Yes I know it's late to call like this
But I was memory inspired
Feelings I've been keeping
Keeping me from sleeping
Burning like a distant fire

Yesterdays are in my heart tonight
And I can't fight that old desire
Loneliness remembers
Love that lives in embers
Flickering from a distant fire

From where we were
To where we are
Seems so close
To be so far
I'll never own the moon and stars
But I can see them shine

Like I said it's late to call like this
Darling I apologize
Not for what I'm feeling
Just not for revealing
This love I'm sending on the wire
Burning from a distant fire
