[00:00.00]First Aid Kit - The Lion's Roar
[00:00.36]
[00:01.94]
[00:03.62]
[00:14.65]Now the pale morning sings of forgotten things
[00:20.24]She plays a tune for those who wish to overlook
[00:26.17]The fact that they've been blindly deceived
[00:29.50]By those who preach and pray and teach
[00:32.38]But she falls short and the night explodes in laughter
[00:38.48]
[00:40.95]But don't you come here and say I didn't warn you
[00:46.80]About the way your world can alter
[00:53.09]And oh how you try to command it all still
[00:57.61]Every single time it all shifts one way or the other
[01:03.93]
[01:04.39]And I'm a goddamn coward,
[01:07.20]but then again so are you
[01:10.39]And the lion's roar, the lion's roar
[01:16.08]Has me evading and hollering for you
[01:22.08]And I never really knew what to do
[01:29.97]
[01:42.52]Now I guess sometimes
[01:44.72]I wish you were a little more predictable
[01:48.72]That I could read you just like a book
[01:54.62]For now I can only guess what's coming next
[02:00.11]By examining your timid smile
[02:05.91]And the ways of the old,
[02:08.77]old winds blowing you back 'round
[02:14.89]
[02:16.55]And I'm a goddamn fool, but then again so are you
[02:23.63]And the lion's roar, the lion's roar
[02:29.22]Has me seeking out and searching for you
[02:35.15]And I never really knew what to do
[02:42.54]
[03:04.85]Sometimes I wish I could find my Rosemary Hill
[03:16.30]I'd sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I'd sing
[03:27.30]And every once in a while I'd sing a song for you
[03:33.30]That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea
[03:40.06]And if I wanted it to it would lead you back to me
[03:48.94]
[03:53.03]And the lion's roar, the lion's roar
[03:59.68]Is something that I have heard before
[04:06.86]A children's tale, the lonesome wail of a lion's roar
[04:24.13]
