i keep the fires burning
i keep the world alive
i keep the sky from falling
i keep your heart from stalling
i see your body trembling
when the cold has gripped you deep inside
and i'm sure that
my platinum voice won't leave a choice
and i'm sure that
you'll live to rue the day
when you had to say . . .
i do my best to save her from the truth
and i do my best to save her from herself
i keep the sea from churning
i keep the wind on high
i keep the earth from turning
i keep the young hearts yearning
i see your head is shaking
when you find your request has been denied
