Hold Your Fire --
Keep It Burning Bright
Hold The Flame 'til The Dream Ignites --
A Spirit With A Vision Is A Dream With A Mission

I Hear Their Passionate Music
Read The Words That Touch My Heart
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 -- I Wish I Had That Drive

Spirits Fly On Dangerous Missions
Imaginations On Fire
Focused High On Soaring Ambitions
Consumed In A Single Desire

In The Grip Of A Nameless Possession --
A Slave To The Drive Of Obsession --
A Spirit With A Vision Is A Dream With A Mission...

I Watch Their Images Flicker
Bringing Light To A Lifeless Screen
I Walk Through Their Beautiful Buildings
And I Wish I Had Their Dreams

But Dreams Don't Need To Have Motion
To Keep Their Spark Alive
Obsession Has To Have Action --
Pride Turns On The Drive

It's Cold Comfort
To The Ones Without It
To Know How They Struggled --
How They Suffered About It

If Their Lives Were Exotic And Strange
They Would Likely Have Gladly Exchanged Them
For Something A Little More Plain
Maybe Something A Little More Sane

We Each Pay A Fabulous Price
For Our Visions Of Paradise
But A Spirit With A Vision Is A Dream With A Mission...
