Lion In The Winter lyrics

Like a lion in the winter I can hear the summer call

Like a ship out on the ocean made of stone

And sometimes when I get lonely

I can swear I hear you call

Oh, the nights are cold when

you don't keep me warm.

And when I first saw you, I first loved you

With a song that I sang to the fire in your eyes

But somebody told you that it wouldn't be easy

And you carried that lie for the devil to sing.

Some sail rivers deep and muddy,

some sail rivers clear and cold

But the river that I'm sailin' goes to sea

And sometimes I do grow weary,

sometimes I feel old

And sometimes I wonder if you think of me.

And when I first saw you I first loved you

With a song that I sang to the fire in your eyes

But somebody told you that it wouldn't be easy

And you carried that lie for the devil to sing.
