THE LION


Late at night, rain falling down

Sets my mind wandering

Took a drive on a highway

I saw you standing in the rain

Destiny was calling me

I would never be the same



You said,

You said your heart was aching,

You were sad



I saw you cry,

The night you lied to me,

Oh no!

You took my hand,

Then faded with the light

They said you died out

On the road that night



I’m in cold, cold sweat

Knuckles white upon the wheel

Danger flies on silent wings

I can’t fight and I can’t feel

Now I’m standing in the daylight

And it seems just like a dream

If only I could touch you girl

But you’re not there for real!
