Love this.
Okay, I am not sure if mine...Good idea!! Love this.<br />Okay, I am not sure if mine counts as a power ballad but it is definitely 80s and fits my frame of mind.Here it goes:<br />In the burning heart<br />Just about to burst<br />There's a quest for answers<br />An unquenchable thirst<br />In the darkest night<br />Rising like a spire<br />In the burning heart<br />The unmistakable fire<br />In the burning heart<br /><br />This makes me laugh!! And yes I listen to the Rocky soundtrack. :) Can't wait to see what others come up with!The Bustershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997732379617645016noreply@blogger.com
