 Hold your fire

 I hear their passionate music

 I gaze at their feverish pictures

 The secrets that set them apart

 When I feel the powerful visions

 Their fire has made alive

 I wish I had that instinct

 Spirits fly on dangerous missions

D              A
 Imaginations on fire

G                 A
 Focused high on soaring ambitions

    G           A
Consumed in a single desire

D                 A
In the grip of a nameless possession

D                A
A slave to the drive of obsession

G                A
A spirit with a vision

      Bm A         D      A  D  A
Is a dream with a mission

 I watch their images flicker

 Bringing light to a lifeless screen

 I walk through their beautiful buildings

F#
 And I wish I had their dreams

B
 But dreams don't need to have motion

E
 To keep their spark alive

G#m
 Obsession has to have action

 Pride turns on the drive

A slave to the drive of obsession

A spirit with a vision

      Bm A         D
Is a dream with a mission

D           A
 It's cold comfort

D                A
 To the ones without it

G                    A
 To know how they struggled

G                    A
 How they suffered about it

D                      A
 If their lives were Exotic and strange

D                         A
 They would likely have gladly exchanged them

     G                        A
For something a little more plain

       G                       A
Maybe something a little more sane

D              A
We each pay a fabulous price

D                   A
For our visions of paradise

        G            A
But a spirit with a vision

       G A           D
Is a dream with a mission

       G            A
But a spirit with a vision

       G A           D
Is a dream with a mission

G A
