La Fiamma Sacra — Russell Watson

Born with the voice of an angel

A boy with the earth on his hands For this child of the lowly Fate had made other plans He was only a man of the people With barely his clothes to his name But when he sang - there was magic Touched by love's sacred flame La fiamma sacra

Chorus

Holy fire in his soul Born to conquer the dark A man who came ? to carry the flame Awakening ? la fiamma sacra

He sang to the soul of a nation A voice for the meek and the strong A world of fabulous stories Came to life in his song With a gift for the whole of creation He gave not for fortune or fame A simple man ? blessed with magic Touched by love's sacred flame La fiamma sacra

Chorus

Holy fire in his soul Born to conquer the dark A man who came ? to carry the flame With a voice that can speak ? to the heart

Holy fire in his soul Born to conquer the dark A man who came ? to carry the flame Awakening ? la fiamma sacra
