John Parr Updates St. Elmo’s Fire Theme Song For Tim Tebow
Tim Tebow probably doesn’t even remember the 1980s. But the man behind one of the decade’s most memorable songs has updated its lyrics in light of the Denver quarterback’s miraculous performances, which might just take the Bronocs all the way to the Super Bowl.
The singer John Parr, earned a Grammy nomination in 1985 for the “Man in Motion” track, best known for for being the theme to Brat Pack movie St. Elmo’s Fire. The song reached the top of the Billboard Hot 100 two years before Tebow was born. Parr has now released a tweaked version, which contains lyrics such as, “You know I’m out there/Down on one knee/A prisoner/And I’m tryin’ to break free.” Fists are almost certainly about to be pumped once again.

That’s cool and all, but he phoned it in. He should have hired the Cuttty Come Back guy to help him write decent lyrics.

Lyrics:
Tim Tebow’s Fire (Lyrics)
Growin’ up
Gotta keep your eye on the ball
Make it fly,
Give it everything, give your all
But maybe sometime if you feel the pain
You’ll find you’re all alone
Everything has changed
Play the game
You know you can’t quit until it’s won
Soldier on
Only you can do what must be done
You know I’m out there
Down on one knee
a prisoner
And I’m tryin’ to break free
CHORUS:
I can see a new horizon
Underneath the blazin’ sky
I’ll be where the eagle’s
Flyin’ higher and higher
Gonna be a man in motion
All I needs my Broncos team
Take me where my future’s lyin’
Tim Tebows Fire
Oooh…
Burnin’ up
Don’t know just how far that I can go
(Just how far I go)
Soon be home
Only just 4 downs to go
I can make it
I know I can
You broke the boy in me
But you won’t break the man
(CHORUS)
I can see a new horizon
blazin on the Mile High
I’ll be where the eagle’s
Flyin’ higher and higher
Gonna be your man in motion
All I needs my Broncos team
Take me where my future’s lyin’
Tim Tebows Fire
I can climb the highest mountain
These Broncos can’t be beat
I can feel St Elmo’s Fire burnin’ in me
Burnin’ in me
Just once in his life
A man has his time
And my time is now
And I’m comin’ alive
I can hear the music playin’
I can see the banners fly
Feel like a man again
I’ll hold my head high
Gonna be a man in motion
These Broncos can’t be beat
Take me where my future’s lyin’
Tim Tebow’s fire
I can see a new horizon
blazin on the Mile High
I’ll be where the eagle’s
Flyin’ higher and higher
Gonna be your man in motion
All I needs my Broncos team
Take me where my future’s lyin’
Tim Tebows Fire
I can climb the highest mountain
Cross the wildest sea
I can feel St. Elmo’s Fire burnin’ in me
Burnin’
Burnin’ in me
I can feel it burnin’
Oooh, burnin’ inside of me
