[00:00.55]Now the flames (they followed) they followed Joan of Arc
[00:34.20]As she came riding through the dark (through the dark)
[00:39.53](No) No moon to keep her armor bright (armor bright)
[00:45.84](No) No man (to) to get her through this
[00:49.66]Very smoky night (through this smoky night)
[00:55.29]She said, “I’m tired of the war (ooh)
[01:02.58]I want the kind of work I had before (ooh)
[01:07.70]With a wedding dress or something white (ooh)
[01:13.29]To wear upon my swollen appetite”
[01:22.26]La-da-da, la-da-da…
[01:38.34]La-la-la-la…
[01:40.19]La-la-la-la…
[01:41.99]La-la-la…
[01:48.03]Well, I’m glad to to hear you talk this way (ooh)
[01:56.70]You know I’ve watched you riding every day
[02:00.56]’N something in me yearns to win
[02:06.09]Such a cold and lonesome heroine
[02:15.47]”And who are you?” she sternly spoke (ooh)
[02:25.50]To the one beneath the smoke (ooh)
[02:30.44]”Why, I’m fire,” he replied
[02:34.60]”And I love your solitude
[02:37.11]And I love your pride”
[02:43.39]La-da-da, la-da-da…
[02:53.61]La-la-la-la…
[02:58.42]La-la-la-la…
[03:04.10]La-la-la…
[03:09.23]”Then fire, make your body cold
[03:19.65]I’m gonna give you mine to hold”
[03:24.70]Saying this she climbed inside
[03:30.32]To be his one, to be his only bride
[03:37.72]And deep into his fiery heart (ooh)
[03:45.35]He took the dust of Joan of Arc
[03:50.52]And high above the wedding guests
[03:54.96]He hung the ashes of her wedding dress
[04:04.50]La-da-da, la-da-da…
[04:12.29]La-la-la-la…
[04:15.45]La-la-la-la…
[04:20.38]La-la-la…
[04:26.29]It was deep into his fiery heart (ooh)
[04:39.25]He took the dust of Joan of Arc
[04:44.14]And then she clearly understood
[04:49.54]If if he was fire (ooh)
[04:52.14]Oh, she then she must be wood
[04:57.95](I saw) I saw her wince, I saw her cry (ooh)
[05:06.78]I saw the glory in her eye (in her eye)
[05:12.94]Myself (I long) I long for love and light (and light)
[05:16.91](But must) but must it come so cruel (so cruel)
[05:19.87]And oh so bright? (And oh so bright?)
[05:23.72]La-da-da, la-da-da…
[05:34.22]La-la-la-la…
[05:41.14]La-la-la-la…
