Oh, to be passionate about something!
Oh, to have found that something!
You will hear the birds sing!
You will see the sun shine!
You will smile a radiant smile!
You will know why youre alive!
It took me a while
To find that something
The clues were there
From the time I was young
But it took a while
For the fire of passion to ignite
Id see a little spark here
A little spark there
And as they were nurtured over the years
A few fanned into flames
I felt the warmth
It saw the light
It felt love
And the night became bright
Things Im passionate about make me smile
Make my heart sing
They are things I cant do without
Now, I try to keep fanning the flames
Because there is nothing more beautiful
Than seeing this bon fire burn
