Erin McKeown - The Lions şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Erin McKeown

albüm: Hundreds of Lions


Hundreds of lions roaring at their cage
She and I go dancing by in sequins, unscathed
You must believe us if we act like we're in love
We're professional acrobats and we like it dangerous
But in the moment before I hit that pool, I wonder
Am I doing the fooling, or am I the fool?
There's a risk
There's a twist
In anything worth doing
If you're caught
Doing what's proper
You better stop before you ruin it
She and I were circus lovers, cannonball, somersault, split
We were made to smile in sawdust and mean every word of it
Nothing turned us on more than to turn every eye
Dah dah dah dah dub dub dah, dah dub dub dah dah dah dah
But in the moment before the curtain dropped, I wondered
Why am I always the bottom, and never the top?
There's a risk
There's a twist
In anything worth doing
If you're caught
Doing what's proper
You better stop before you ruin it
Hundreds of lions sleeping silent in their cage
Striped canvas folds, bright satin fades
Wild animals have to roam free and far
Despite the occasional tie-up, she was never one for bars
But in our tattoo-ed bodies we'll keep a part
Of the freak show our mothers warned us about
There's a risk
There's a twist
In anything worth doing
And if you're caught
Doing what's proper
You better stop before you ruin it
So I regret
Oh I fret
That I could never tell you the truth
But we live
With what we're given
Oh! and I will always believe
In love
