mission [a show of hands] - rush lyrics

Loading...

hold your fire —
keep it burning bright
hold the flame
‘til the dream ignites —
a spirit with a vision
is a dream with a mission

i hear their p-ssionate music
read the words
that touch my heart
i gaze at their feverish pictures
the secrets that set them apart

when i feel the powerful visions
their fire has made alive
i wish i had that instinct —
i wish i had that drive

spirits fly on dangerous missions
imaginations on fire
focused high on soaring ambitions
consumed in a single desire

in the grip
of a nameless possession —
a slave to the drive of obsession —
a spirit with a vision
is a dream with a mission…

i watch their images flicker
bringing light to a lifeless screen
i walk through
their beautiful buildings
and i wish i had their dreams

but dreams don’t need
to have motion
to keep their spark alive
obsession has to have action —
pride turns on the drive

it’s cold comfort
to the ones without it
to know how they struggled —
how they suffered about it

if their lives were
exotic and strange
they would likely have
gladly exchanged them
for something a little more plain
maybe something a little more sane

we each pay a fabulous price
for our visions of paradise
but a spirit with a vision
is a dream with a mission…
