Carrying the Fire Lyrics

We've come too far to turn back now

The road is long, but we are not alone

I've walked through the dark, I've wrestled the night

I've carried the questions, I've fought for the light

I don't have the map, I don't know the way

But the fire inside me still burns just the same

I don't need every answer to move

I don't need every sign to choose

I'm carrying the fire, I'm holding it high (holding it high)

Through the wind, through the rain, through the endless sky (endless sky)

If the road is uncertain, if the night is long

I will not falter, I will press on

Some have fallen, some have strayed

Some return in their own way

But no step is wasted, no fire is gone

If the embers remain, we carry it on

I don't need every answer to move

I don't need every sign to choose

I'm carrying the fire, I'm holding it high (holding it high)

Through the wind, through the rain, through the endless sky (endless sky)

If the road is uncertain, if the night is long

I will not falter, I will press on

This fire is not mine alone

We pass it forward, we keep it known

Through every loss, through every fight

We hold it up, we keep it bright

I'm carrying the fire, I'm holding it high (holding it high)

Through the wind, through the rain, through the endless sky (endless sky)

If the road is uncertain, if the night is long

I will not falter, I will press on

The fire still burns

It never goes out
