Fire Island - Steve Hackett

作词：Steve Hackett

作曲：Steve Hackett

River called and cried

Across the twisted steel

Blues on fire island

Had a magic to heal

Souls full of anger

Sadness and despair

A harbour in my heart

Where love was there

Well the hotel was raised to the ground

But the spirits still visit there

They rebuilt it stone by stone

I sometimes stand and stare

I see a red light like a flame

And a beast that can't be tamed

Anchored to a place

Where love was there

Hell was never hotter

When butter had his day

Like the loaves and fishes

A miracle at play

A thin crowd became a multitude

Pounding on the door

A sound to wake the dead

Tearing through the floor

Everything's washed away

By the tides of time

But every now and then

All comes back again

I'm captive in a place

Both a palace and a dive

I've a picture in my mind

Where love was there
