The Fire Inside Lyrics - Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band

There's a hard moon rising 

On the streets tonight 

There's a reckless feeling in your heart 

As you head out tonight 

Through the concrete canyons 

To the midtown light 

Where the latest neon promises 

Are burning bright 

Past the open windows 

On the darker streets 

Where unseen angry voices flash 

And children cry 

Past the phony posers 

With their worn out lines 

The tired new money dressed 

To the nines

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

The low life dealers 

With their bad designs 

And the dilettantes 

With their open minds 

You're out on the town, safe in the crowd 

Ready to go for the ride 

Searching the eyes, looking for clues 

There's no way you can hide 

The fire inside 

Well, you've been to the clubs 

And the discotheques 

Where they deal one another 

From the bottom of a deck of promises 

Where the cautious loners 

And emotional wrecks 

Do an acting stretch as a way to hide 

The obvious 

And the lights go down 

And they dance real close 

And for one brief instant they pretend 

They're safe and warm 

Then the beat gets louder 

And the mood is gone 

The darkness scatters 

As the lights flash on 

They hold one another 

Just a little too long 

And they move apart 

And then move on 

On to the street, on to the next 

Safe in the knowledge that they tried 

Faking the smile, hiding the pain 

Never satisfied 

The fire inside, fire inside 

Now, the hour is late 

And he thinks you're asleep 

You listen to him dress 

And you listen to him leave 

Like you knew he would 

You hear his car pull 

Away in the street 

Then you move to the door 

And you lock it when 

He's gone for good 

Then you walk to the window 

And stare at the moon 

Riding high and lonesome 

Through a starlit sky 

And it comes to you 

How it all slips away 

Youth and beauty 

Are gone one day 

No matter what you dream 

Or feel or say 

It ends in dust 

And disarray 

Like wind on the plains, sand through the glass 

Waves rolling in with the tide 

Dreams die hard and we watch them erode 

But we cannot be denied 

The fire inside 

Fire inside, fire inside 

Burning you up 

Burning you up 

Fire inside
