Lighthouse Audio - Finding Fire Lyrics

When I was sixteen
I got my first guitar
We stayed up singing late
'Til we could see the stars

Music was a magnet
Coffee kept us wired
Nothing else mattered much
I was the fool they hired

We were the first to find fire
We felt so good, so inspired
We stumbled onto something that satisfied our thirst
Like a new discovery in our backyard universe
We were the first ... to find fire

Now I am a cynic
My passion's faded
My heart's not in it, no
My soul is jaded

But when we gather round
That old guitar and sing
The magic of the music
Has my mind remembering

We were the first to find fire
We felt so good, so inspired
We stumbled onto something that satisfied our thirst
Like a new discovery in our backyard universe
We were the first
We thought we were the first
To find fire
