It was the summer of sixty-four

we ran the streets on to the shore

And in every game we played we knew we had it made
Like no other time before
I was just a man
you were still a child

two hearts that were running wild

There was no need to pretend
you became more than a friend

They were days without an end

We laughed where we played
we made love where we laid

In the light again we'd run
When the night called the tune
we'd shoot at the moon

And lavgh at what we'd done

We were hearts of fire

Do you remember it
my friend

we didn't think that it would end
Together then we ran
this boy became a man
They burn on those hearts of fire

they burn on those hearts of fire

Hearts of fire!

And by seventy-two I was running free

it was just the way I wanted to be

I thought I'd left our love for dead

but my heart it ruled my head

And I fell in love instead!

We fought where we played
we made love where we laid

Just like the time before
And if the battle should start to tear us apart

we won't go to war no more

We were hearts of fire

Do you remember it
my friend

we didn't think that it would end
Toghether then we ran
turn a boy into a man
They burn on those hearts of fire

they burn on those hearts of fire

They burn on those hearts of fire
hearts of fire!

We were hearts of fire
