Next To The Fire

In a day when dinosaurs walked the earth
When the land was swamp and caves were home
In an age when prize possession was fire
To search for landscapes men would roamThen the tribes they came to steel the fire
And the wolves they howled into the night
As they fought a vicious angry battle
To save the power of warmth and lightDrawn by quest for fire they searched all through the land
Drawn by quest for fire discovery of manAnd they thought that when the embers died away
That the flame of life had burnt and died
Didn't know the sparks that made the fire
Were made by rubbing stick and stoneSo they ploughed through forests and swamps of danger
And they fought the cannibal tribes and beasts
In the search to find another fire
To regain the power of light and heatDrawn by quest for fire they searched across the land
Drawn by quest for fire discovery of manDrawn by quest for fire they searched across the land
Drawn by quest for fire discovery of manDrawn by quest for fire they searched across the land
Drawn by quest for fire discovery of man
