Two young lads on distant shores   Tending to the rigors of their daily chores   Their parents tell them what's going on   and they're waiting for the fire      Two young men on distant shores   Tending to the rigors of their social norms   The news reel tells them what's going on   and they're waiting for the fire      Waiting for the fire   The heat is rising and their tongues are getting drier   The culmination of an ancient time   They are waiting for the fire      Waiting for the fire   They are waiting for the fire
