Argent
Keeper Of The Flame
Argent-White
See me, hear me
This is what I am when we're together
For we are born alone, seen to stumble
Pass the early days in pain and pleasure
Oh maybe I was lost and sometimes was confused
But I was just a boy then
And I was living, forgiving, making music
Making love with equal pleasure
Remember, remember the winter
When the cold rain on the mystery fell
These years they, they make me my fortune
But my memories serve to make me as well
We drank the sun, shared the wind
Being part of one increased the wonder
The moment passes, still unreal
Yet frozen in a timeless state of feeling
I remember, remember the sunrise
Left me breathless streaming ribbons of gold
Now I'm older but still I am watching
Watching breathless as the mystery unfolds
And I recall the things I heard would wash me
With a rare and perfect sadness
I don't pretend to understand the waves of life
That flame and course within us
I'm just the keeper of the flame
And so I will remain while life flows on around me
I'm just the keeper of the flame
Enduring all the pain and lost in joy and wonder
I'm just the keeper of the flame
(I'm just the keeper, the keeper)
I'm just the keeper of the flame
(I'm just the keeper, the keeper)
I'm just the keeper of the flame
