I dreamed a fire last night,
Burned this whole house to the ground.
You were right beside it,
Watching as the roof came down.
You turned to me and cried out,
“How will all weu0027ve lost be found?”
I dreamed a fire last night.

When you awoke this morning,
You said you wish that more had burned,
And through the smoke and ashes,
Your gleaming wings had both unfurled,
And you rose high above it,
Into the golden sky you twirled.
I dreamed a fire last night.

May we be ready
To love again,
From this moment until the end.
From when weu0027re soaring,
To when we fall down,
May we be ready now.

And when your armor comes off,
After all the wars youu0027ve waged,
I think youu0027re beautiful,
Though your hands are clenched in rage.
I know you've wrestled angels,

And prayed and prayed for things to change.
I dreamed a fire last night.

Still thereu0027s a light thatu0027s shining.
It burns in me, it burns in you.
Sometimes we hardly see it.
Sometimes itu0027s shining like the moon.
And even when its darkest,

You hold the flame that will see us through.
I dreamed a fire last night.

So, may we ready
To love again,
From this moment until the end.
From when weu0027re soaring,
To when we fall down,
May we be ready now.
May we be ready now.
May we be ready now.
