Day by day, watching you disappear Wishing that you were still here beside me On my own, swimming against the tide There's nobody on my side but your memory Then you'll rise right before my eyes On wings that fill the sky Like a phoenix rising Like a phoenix rising Wings on fire, tearing into the night Screaming into the light of another day Carry me out of the hurricane Into the smoke and flame and we'll fly away And we'll rise right before their eyes On wings that fill the sky Like a phoenix rising Like a phoenix rising Higher, higher, hear the thunder roar from above Fire, fire, fire make me whole And we'll rise right before their eyes On wings that fill the sky Like a phoenix rising Like a phoenix rising Wings on fire, tearing into the night And we'll fly away
