Hearts of Fire Lyrics

It was the summer of sixty-four
We ran the streets on the shore
And in every game we played we knew we had it made
Like no other time beforeI was just a man, you were still a child
Two hearts that were running wild
There was no need to pretend
You became more than a friend, they were days without an endWe laughed where we played
We made love where we laid, in the light again we'd run
When the night called the tune we'd shoot at the moon
And laugh at what we'd doneWe were hearts of fire
Do you remember, my friend?
We didn't think it would end
Together then we ranThis boy became a man
They burn on those hearts of fire
They burn on those hearts of fire
Hearts of fireAnd by seventy two I was running free
It was just the way I wanted to be
I thought I'd never break again, I won't wear love like a chain

To be in love is to be in painAs the warrior then I fall from grace
When we met again face to face
I thought I'd left our love for dead
But my heart, it ruled my head and I fell in love insteadWe fought where we played
We made love where we laid just like the time before
And if the battle should tear us apart
We won't go to war no moreWe were hearts of fire
Do you remember, my friend?
We didn't think it would end
Together then we ranTurn a boy into a man
They burn on those hearts of fire
They burn on those hearts of fire
Hearts of fire
