Lyrics

Blaze of Glory/Ball of Fire
Words and Music by Steve Farber

The house is burning let's warm ourselves
the river's rising let's fill our pails
The storm is blowing let's raise our sails
That's the way it is it never fails

It's always a dramatic story and it's always down to the wire
May you go down in a blaze of glory and come back in a ball of fire

The earth is shaking let's learn to dance
our hearts are breaking let's find romance
The battle's raging let's hold our stance
That's the way it is not by chance

It's always a dramatic story and it's always down to the wire
May you go down in a blaze of glory and come back in a ball of fire

The tree is falling let's hear the sound
ashes ashes we all fall down
Phoenix rising for one more round
That's the way it is we're lost and found

It's always a dramatic story and it's always down to the wire
May you go down in a blaze of glory and come back in a ball of fire

Have faith, don't fade on me
Take a pen take a napkin and write your next chapter
Fill it with characters fill them with love
give 'em some anguish to rise up above
At the end of the story at the close of the scene
When the obvious things are not what they seem
When the villain is vanquished and the hero redeemed
And the bounty is granted for all your good deeds
And you climb on the back of your mighty white steed
And head for the sunset like the end of a poem
And ride away, ride away, ride away home


The house is burning let's warm ourselves
The earth is shaking let's learn to dance
The tree is falling let's hear the sound
That's the way it is we all fall down

It's always a dramatic story and it's always down to the wire
May you go down in a blaze of glory and come back in a ball of fire
May you go down in a blaze of glory and come back in a ball of fire
