In the lion’s jaw
I’m the lion’s cub
I don’t know where you’ve been
(I'm in the lion’s den.)
I don’t know where you are are
(I'm in the lion’s jaw.)
Don’t be alarmed: this is my loudest roar
I don’t mind when I’m inside the lion’s jaw
When I’m the lion’s cub being carried away
If it’s love
When you let go of your hold and
I’m falling through to the forest floor
Will you still be there, or am I on my own?
I’ve never seen your face-
Only the places that we pass through
You hold on to the back of my neck
I see the light up on the hill;
I don’t know if it’s for you
Into the darkness we hit the trail
Where the ghosts go to hang out;
They are heroes in the clouds
And images in the high cliffs
I don’t mind when I’m inside the lion’s jaw
When I’m the lion’s cub being carried away
If it’s love
