A Lion's Heart

There's a palace a-fallin'

There's a smoke in the sky

There's a boy running down into the lowlands tonight

And he's catching a train to where he's heard you have been

He's a fool now among us but a dreamer within

Dreamin' of you

And on that day there was snowfall in the street, yellow light

And they cleared the bill and rails just by those dark shimmer eyes

In that land there's a winter

In that winter's a day

In that day there's a moment when it all goes all your way

And you know it's a lion's heart

That will tumble and tear apart

When he's comin' down the hills for you

But can you still now remember who's been hiding up there

Through his howling at twilight all his songs of despair

Do you remember the caller of a black and white crime?

Well he lives by that memory and falls through his mind

And you know it's a lion's heart

That will tumble and tear apart

When he's comin' down the hills for you

Well he'll walk in the city forever

Oh, walk in a time to be gone

Well there's no real goodbye if you mean it

So hey, guess I'm forever alone

Now he's a stranger among us, he will die in the park

Where he hides from the statues and the weather remarks

In that land there's a winter

In that winter's a day

In that day there's a moment when it all goes away

And you know it's a lion's heart

That will tumble and tear apart

When it's comin' down the hills for you
