lyrics

Into the dark as the twilight unfolds
Sedated morning suburbian tales
Bold and sublime as I reach for the golden lion

Now that the moon's black cloak blankets the sun
Surrounded by faces of which I know none
I feel all alone so I reach for the golden lion

Golden lion take my hand
My knees are weak and I’m falling down
And I've lost my way
But whoa oh ho take me home
Golden lion in my heart
It's a dying flame but I feel the fire
And I’ve lost my way
But who oh ho take me home
Golden lion in my heart
Golden lion you're my road
Golden lion take me home

My feet are tired and my mind is torn
My head moves full circle as I search for the door
There in the shadow, you shine
My golden lion

Golden lion take my hand
My knees are weak and I'm falling down
And I've lost my way
But whoa oh ho take me home
Golden lion in my heart
It's a dying flame but I feel the fire
And I've lost my way
But who oh ho take me home
Golden lion

Golden lion crashes in like a movie scene
(I'm free, I'm free, I'm free)
Golden lion scatters and carries our wildest dreams
(I'm free, I'm free, I'm free)
Running full steam just to make it home
And take slumber in your heart

Whoa oh ho Golden Lion

Golden lion take my hand
My knees are weak and I’m falling down
And I’ve lost my way
But whoa oh ho take me home
Golden lion in my heart
It's a dying flame but I feel the fire
And I’ve lost my way
But who oh ho take me home
Golden lion in my heart
Golden lion you're my road
Golden lion take me home
