Like A Lion
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
How it delighted
Born so black and cold
And admired
Like yours
Like yours
How it delighted us
Hands over hand
Like a lion
Like a lion
Still watching the world go down
Still watching it all go 'round
And the time stands still
Until now
And it all stands still
Somehow you thought it never would
