Asia – Heat Of The Moment Lyrics 12 years ago
this song is written from the perspective of a man who had a friend/girlfriend from the time they were young who he promised, basically, he would never let down. he did, though, and he regrets it. however, over time she has become a person consumed by a certain lifestyle and here she is in 1982, her youth fading, the clubs are stale to her and she doesn't really care about what's going on in the world- she's just catching the pearl and riding the dragon's wings i.e. heroin. her eyes used to shine but now she's just a broken women who will end up alone and unhappy, constantly remembering her youth and that heat of the moment. this is a great story song from the era of excess.
