| [00:14.854] |
Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things |
| [00:20.429] |
She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook |
| [00:26.322] |
The fact that they've been blindly deceived |
| [00:29.725] |
By those who preach and pray and teach |
| [00:32.677] |
But she falls short and the night explodes in laughter |
| [00:41.156] |
But don't you come here and say I didn't warn you |
| [00:46.929] |
About the way your world can alter |
| [00:53.182] |
And oh how you try to command it all still |
| [00:58.572] |
Every single time it all shifts one way or the other |
| [01:04.490] |
And I'm a goddamn coward, but then again so are you |
| [01:10.447] |
And the lion's roar, the lion's roar |
| [01:16.288] |
Has me evading and hollering for you |
| [01:22.248] |
And I never really knew what to do |
| [01:42.661] |
Now I guess sometimes I wish you were a little more predictable |
| [01:48.902] |
That I could read you just like a book |
| [01:54.692] |
For now I can only guess what's coming next |
| [02:00.368] |
By examining your timid smile |
| [02:06.298] |
And the ways of the old, old winds blowing you back around |
| [02:17.816] |
And I'm a goddamn fool, but then again so are you |
| [02:23.756] |
And the lion's roar, the lion's roar |
| [02:29.433] |
Has me seeking out and searching for you |
| [02:35.233] |
And I never really knew what to do |
| [03:05.262] |
Sometimes I wish I could find my Rosemary Hill |
| [03:16.392] |
I'd sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I'd sing |
| [03:27.460] |
And every once in a while I'd sing a song for you |
| [03:33.568] |
That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea |
| [03:39.143] |
And if I wanted it to it would lead you back to me |
| [03:53.313] |
And the lion's roar, the lion's roar |
| [04:00.074] |
Is something that I have heard before |
| [04:06.895] |
A children's tale, the lonesome wail of a lion's roar |
