View Lyrics

I remember days full of restlessness and fury
I remember nights that were drunk on dreams
I remember someone who hungered for the glory
I remember her, but it seems she’s gone

Where’s the girl?
Where’s the girl with the blaze in her eyes?
Where’s the girl with that gaze of surprise?
Now and then I still dream she’s beside me
Where’s the girl who could turn on the edge of a knife?
Where’s the girl who was burning for life?
I can still feel her breathing beside me

And I know she remembers how fearless she feels
To take off with the wind at her heels
She and I took this world like a storm
Come again!

Let the girl in your heart tumble free
Bring your renegade heart home to me
In the dark of the morning, I’ll warm you
I’ll rouse you

Marguerite, don’t forget I know who you are
We were cut from the same surly star
Like two jewels in the sky sharing fire
Where’s the girl so alive and still aching for more?
We had dreams that were worth dying for
We were caught in the eye of a storm
Come again!

Let the girl in your heart tumble free
Bring your renegade heart home to me
In the dark of the morning, I’ll warm you
I’ll rouse you

Where’s the girl?
Is she gazing at me with surprise?
Do I still see that blaze in her eyes?
Am I dreaming, or is she beside me now?
