Lyrics
"THE PHOENIX"
by Rick Spurgin
When you look at me
do you see a man without a cause
Trying to find himself inside this empty heart
Oh, how could this be
somewhere I lost me
When I looked in the mirror
I thought I thought I saw someone else
Like an actor playing a part in a late night picture show
Oh, how could it be
When I looked back what I saw was me
I?ll be like the Phoenix
rising up out of the fire
The more they feed the flames
I?ll fly that much hire
I?ll take my wings and I?ll fly
I will touch the sky
When I was young
I thought I had it all figured out
But you had me convinced I couldn?t make it without you
Oh, how could it be
You thought you clipped my wings
I?ll be like the Phoenix
rising up out of the fire
The more they feed the flames
I?ll fly that much hire
I?ll take my wings and I?ll fly
I will touch the sky
