The Lion of Love Songtext

von Mike Scott

Calling down the lion of love
Use me
Calling down the lion of love
Use me

So much to say
So much to time and space
I said it load and clear
Plot and make my case
I put it into rhythm
Sculpt it into rhyme
Wrap my secrets in a melody
Fire it at the fortress of your mind
And if after all I sing
You don't believe a thing
That's alright
We got all night

Calling down the lion of love
Use me
Calling down the lion of love
Use me

Use my heart
Use my hands
Use me any way you can
Calling down the lion of love

So much trouble in the world
So much pain
I've heard it all before
I'll hear it again
But I'm trying to imagine
A world transformed by love
Open up my mind's eye
And let the pictures flood
Imagine that it's real
What does it look like, how does it feel
Hold the vision
Bring it down, spread it around

Calling down the lion of love
Use me
Calling down the lion of love
Use me

Use my vision
Use my voice
I've had a vision
And I've made my choice

Calling down the lion of love
