Chorus (2x)

Outro:	(same as intro)




Verse 1:

	In a time when dinosaurs walked the earth   
	When the land was swamp and caves were home   
	In an age when prize possession was fire     
	To search for landscapes men would roam.
                                 
	Then the tribes they came to steal their fire              
	And the wolves they howled into the night     
	As they fought a vicious angry battle        
	to save the power of warmth and light.
        
Chorus 1:
                                
	Drawn by quest for fire                                    
	They searched all through the land                    
	Drawn by quest for fire                                          
	Discovery of man.
         
Verse 2:
                       
	And they thought that when the embers died away        
	That the flame of life had burnt and died           
	Didn't know the sparks that made the fire          
	Were made by rubbing stick and stone.
                            
	So they ploughed through the forest and swamps of danger   
	And they fought the cannibal tribes and beasts        
	In the search to find another fire             
	To regain the power of light and heat.
        
Chorus 2:
                               
	Drawn by quest for fire          
	They searched across the land     
	Drawn by quest for fire         
	Discovery of man.
