about

Sometimes we don't know how silly we sound until we hear someone else speak our thoughts. Usually, then, it's too late. But isn't it lovely to dance uninhibited in our dreamworlds?

lyrics

Daylight and the weather gets hotter
Wind sneaks through my window pane
Teasing me awake

Daytime brings the loveliest sunshine
I smile and watch the coloured rays
Dance across his face

Chorus:
Even though i'm just a silly lion
I know i'm lying right next to a snake
Somethings gonna change within our natures
He won't bite
He tells me everyday

Verse:
Sweet perfume lingers on my pillow
(Your breath upon my shoulder)
Sends me into space
He and me
Tangled up dreamily
I can't escape so I sink
Into his warm embrace

Chorus:
Even though I'm just a silly lion
I know i'm lying right next to a snake
Somethings gonna change within our natures
He won't bite
He tells me everyday

Bridge:
And we dance and we dance and we spin on heavens hand
And stand aside for breath
And we pound and we pound and we bang on our drums
Then hold our hands for a break

Chorus:
Even though I'm just a silly lion
I know i'm lying right next to a snake
Somethings gonna change within our natures
He won't bite
He tells me everyday
