    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this for a group of women friends of mine. It has been known to be performed accompanied only by table-bangers at a certain bar in Burbank! The lyric "Stand in a world that crawls in silence" was inspired by a friend's personal credo: "Be strong in a world that's weak."

    Lyrics
    Passion moves like a wave of hunters
    Taking your breath across the space
    Swirls around you carries you up
    Where the Amazon sun beats down on your face
    Don't look above for the face of a master
    Holding your head in a shining beam
    Until he makes your heart beat faster
    Lifts you high and makes you scream

    Good hearts stand alone like a burning mountain tree
    And the fire in the voice of the rising victim
    Carries across the sea

    You are lost in the desert in the blazing sun
    One determination
    Carries you down to the river on the pounding wave
    Labour of love for the soft and brave

    Passion moves like free wild horses
    Taking you where you were born to run
    Fast and flying catching your breath
    With the wind in your hair and your face in the sun
    Stand in a world that crawls in silence
    Hold your head and look in the eye
    Spirit is the sun, the mist of violence
    Fades in the fire like a trembling lie

    Hard rain must strip you down to wash you clean
    And the power in the hand of the rising victim
    Finally is seen

    You are lost in the desert in the blazing sun
    One determination
    Carries you down to the river on the pounding wave
    Labour of love for the soft and brave

    Passion flies with a sword and a flower
    Breaking you in and laying you down
    A flash, an age, a century, an hour
    Once is lost and all is found
    Blazing high in the world around you
    Rise above desire and shame
    Screaming voices fade away
    And the Amazon sun shall rise again

    And when you fan the flame for all to see
    Then the passion in the eyes of the rising victim
    Finally is free
