Kenny Loggins - Keep The Fire Lyrics
There's a river in
Evening ember glow
And you're wishing you could see
How far it flows
Rolling on to an endless sea
If you could only set sail.
But dreams can drift away
And sails can fill with doubt
Where's your vision
If the embers flicker out?
Don't let it slip from view
The horizons are waiting
Your river is fading
[Chorus:]
So keep the fire burning tonight
See just what comes into sight
Don't take forever
Take it through the night
And believe the sun
Will rise with the dawn
That's all you need to go on
But for tonight
Just keep the fire burning bright
I will never need to ask
"What have I done?"
Comes a moment when it's clear
There's only one.
Oh, whatever you need of me
I've made up my mind
I'll give you more than you've asked for
And there are those who can foresee
Where we will go
All the future...
I don't really want to know
Only that you'll be here with me.
While the embers still glow
We'll be safe till tomorrow.

Kenny Loggins
"Keep The Fire"
1980.
My favorite song by KL and by far and away his best effort, IMHO.
Still listening!
Good Yacht.
Who are you where are you
Keep the fire burning
Mr. T 2020!
Yacht tastic
I saw him in Saratoga winery 2005
Why won't they play this song on the radeo
I had this album in 1980
Thank you, Uploader. Out of all his many, many hits, this is my favorite KL song.
One of my most favorite Kenny Loggins songs. Today's music is total crap by comparison.
Was very lucky that he comes in concert to this nice small arena called Wolf Trap in Vienna Virginia almost every year. I've seen him in concert many times and it never gets old! Great performer!!!
Who can live without this
Jesus christ
Best advice for the long-term relation worth keeping.
Very American Bandstand
yacht rock at its finest!
14 y/o African American boy that loves kenny loggins... check!
Just bought this album on vinyl. What a classic!
I heard this little gem for the first time just a few days ago, thanks to a local radio station, (93.9 MY FM, WCRE) and their checking the playlist. Try THAT with these large corporate radio conglomerates. How I missed it back then I'll never know. (Probably came and went while I was on yet another Navy deployment).
To all my fellow JoJo fans out there, I named my fanmade stand after this song. Kenny Loggins will always have a special spot in my heart
yes that long rita
I saw him live in Pueblo Colorado in 1998
"Let me yacht rock or let me die"....chuuch!!!
It's NOT "yacht rock." Calling it that just shows how incomplete your rock vocabulary is. There never was any "Yacht Rock." That's insane.
@Walter Pewen Oh but there actually is and Kenny Loggins makes sure to dress for it.
Always keep the Fire!
KEEP THE FIRE BURNING....ALWAYS! LATER!
My stepmother used to play this song a lot when it first came out. We lost her not long ago and this song reminds me of her. Truly an underrated song. The last minute is awesome.
So sorry for your loss :(
Troy Vincent
My deepest condolences..
This is an underrated song, indeed! I heard this song on American Top 40 this past weekend!!!
takes me back in time ; sweet time#
He has such a beautiful voice, so soulful! takes me back to much happier times for sure!
Haven't heard this song in years. Love it
I may only be 16 but I love his music I hate the crap nowadays
Me Too!
HAS IT REALLY BEEN 36 YEARS,ALREADY?
Yeah tell me about it.
Superb tune! Great driving tune as I was on the New Hampshire Seacoast, like Hampton Beaches, etc.
"who are you, where are you"
Yes!
I love that part!
I am here in Austin! Stefanie. J.
my absolute favorite part !!
"You're not alone....
It's so wonderful !"
Classic late 70s pop, great stuff.
Peaked @ #36 in April 1980. Why it didn't chart much higher, I have no idea!!!
Bravo, Kenny Loggins!!!
@ChihuahuaboyDH Not commercial enough.
Awesome song. Remember this from the spring of 1980. Too bad it didn't chart higher.
Still love your songs KENNY....great songs...love it when I was still in my teens....More power Kenny!!!!
The most outlandish album art of all time.
Should have a paper cover sleeve.
One of all time favorite, keep the fire burning yeah keep on rocking!!!
Amazing Voice! keeps me coming back whenever., keeps me wanting for more! practically grew up loving his music! age 7 years and up to now still counting.....
Please call him the white Tina Turner.
I Love KL
This Song is Great an so is Kenny!
I have NEVER heard Kenny Loggin's vloice sound so horrible. He doesn't even sound like a professional singer in this recording. JUst terrible. Doesn't even sound like himself.
Saw him playing at a local faire many years ago now. He had a buzz cut, no facial hair and we thought he was one of the roadies for the band. During the show he sang very little spending most of the time during songs pointing his microphone at the audience letting them sing instead. We left early. Dumb.
Why is such a notable song for so many? Thoughts?
For me I remember younger happier days surrounded by wonderful people, drinking lots of wine and not worrying about getting old. Cheers.
I agree
Surprising this charted @ #36 on the Hot 100 singles chart. Should've charted MUCH higher! Very underrated song!
Bravo, Kenny Loggins!
It's a tribute to KoKo, prick!
