First Aid Kit

First Aid Kit - The Lion's Roar lyrics

rate me

Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things

She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook

The fact that they've been blindly deceived

By those who preach and pray and teach

But she falls short and the night explodes in laughter

But don't you come here and say I didn't warn you

About the way your world can alter

And oh how you try to command it all still

Every single time it all shifts one way or the other

And I'm a goddamn coward, but then again so are you

And the lion's roar, the lion's roar

Has me evading and hollering for you

And I never really knew what to do

Well I guess sometimes I wish you were a little more predictable

That I could read you just like a book

For now I can only guess what's coming next

By examining your timid smile

And the ways of the old, old winds blowing you back 'round

And I'm a goddamn fool, but then again so are you

And the lion's roar, the lion's roar

Has me seeking out and searching for you

And I never really knew what to do

Sometimes I wish I could find my Rosemary Hill

I'd sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I'd sing

And every once in a while I'd sing a song for you

That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea

And if I wanted it to it would lead you back to me

And the lion's roar, the lion's roar

Is something that I have heard before

A children's tale, the lonesome wail of a lion's roar
